图书简介
"A superb book for covering all the important topics for an introductory cartography class, with excellent examples, humor, and a personable style. It does not read like a classic (boring) textbook, and I really appreciate that. The visual examples are excellent, as is the ongoing Voyager example that ties all of the concepts together in small pieces that are more digestible for students. The "More" recommendations at the end of each chapter will greatly benefit students who get really interested in a given topic and want more information."--Melinda Shimizu, PhD, Department of Earth and Physical Science, Western Oregon University"I am thrilled to see this third edition.

The book is fresh, lively, and engaging--it is a pleasure to read and thought provoking for students."--Matthew W. Wilson, PhD, Department of Geography, University of Kentucky"This book describes the intersection of maps and art. Graphically, the book is beautifully put together. The descriptions of data classification are among the best in any textbook. Readers will come away with a newfound appreciation for well-designed maps."--Monica Stephens, PhD, Department of Geography, University at Buffalo, The State University of New York"I really like the style of the book.
