Samenvatting:
Door de eeuwen heen zijn niet alleen kaarten gemaakt uit geografische overwegingen maar meer om te begrijpen wat de relatie is van de mensheid tot de planeet. Voor iedereen die geïnteresseerd is in hoe de mensheid heeft geprobeerd de wereld af te beelden en in kaart te brengen is dit boek onmisbaar. Met meer dan 70 historische en moderne kaarten, met medewerking van beroemde cartografen. (
