Maps help us understand and navigate the world. For centuries, maps have become better, more refined, and more precise - there are no blind spots anymore. While navigation is now most often done with digital tools, contemporary maps have evolved into platforms for cutting-edge illustration, experimental data visualization, and personal visual storytelling.

*A Map of the World* is a compelling collection of work by a new generation of original and sought-after designers, illustrators, and mapmakers. This work showcases specific regions, characterizes local scenes, generates moods, and tells stories beyond sheer navigation. From accurate and surprisingly detailed representations to personal, naïve, and modernistic interpretations, the featured projects from around the world range from maps and atlases inspired by classic forms to cartographic experiments and editorial illustrations.

Dit fascinerende boek neemt u mee door de geschiedenis van 2.000 jaar cartografie. Het boek behandelt zowel de primitieve krassen in rendierbotten van de oude eskimo's waarmee zij hun tochten langs de kusten van het poolgebied vastlegden, als de moderne kaarten die zijn gebaseerd op exacte wetenschappelijke waarnemingen. Gaandeweg ontdekken wij hoe de mensheid zich in de eeuwen die achter ons liggen heeft ingespannen om onze aardbol te verkennen en als een soort legpuzzel, deeltje voor deeltje, aan elkaar te passen. Veel gevaarlijke ontdekkingsreizen zijn noodzakelijk geweest om te komen tot ons huidige niveau van kennis. Het bronnenmateriaal en de technieken van de cartografen zijn door de eeuwen heen aanzienlijk veranderd. Politieke, economische en religieuze ontwikkelingen hebben de cartografie als wetenschap in wording sterk beïnvloed. Hierdoor heeft de mens zijn beeld van zijn planeet meerdere keren moeten veranderen en bijstellen. Met andere woorden: de studie van de cartografie geeft ons een geheel ongewoon, maar zeer fascinerend perspectief op het totaal van de wereldgeschiedenis. Na het eerste hoofdstuk, dat ons een beeld geeft van de ontwikkeling van de cartografie, volgen chronologisch de afzonderlijke hoofdstukken over het in kaart brengen van Europa, Azië, Afrika, de beide Amerika's en het laatst ontdekte continent, Australië. Zoals blijkt uit het voorwoord van Gerald Roe Crone: dit is het meest volledige boek over oude kaarten van alle continenten. De tekst wordt ondersteund door meer dan 350 illustraties, waaronder zorgvuldig gereproduceerde kaarten, portretten van beroemde ontdekkingsreizigers en kaartemakers, fraaie titelpagina's en titelbladversieringen van contemporaine publicaties. Hiernaast treft de lezer facsimile-reprodukties van zeer bijzondere kaarten. Een optimaal register completeert het boek.

Imago Mundi is the only English-language scholarly periodical devoted exclusively to the history of pre-modern maps, mapping, and map-related ideas from anywhere in the world. It was founded in Berlin in 1935 by the Russian émigré Leo Bagrow as an annual publication, although only five volumes appeared between 1935 and 1948. From 1975 to 2003 publication was regular. In 2004 Imago Mundi became a biannual publication. The first volume was in German. Thereafter English was used with, very occasionally, French. After 2002 (volume 54) Imago Mundi publishes exclusively in English with foreign language abstracts (currently French, German, and Spanish). A multi-disciplinary approach was adopted in 1995. All articles represent original research, are refereed, and are well illustrated (recent volumes have included color plates). Since 1977 each volume has contained a full complement of scholarly aids in the form of book reviews, bibliography, and chronicles, all of which have made Imago Mundi a valuable journal of record as well as scholarship.

Geospatial mapping applications have become hugely popular in recent years. With smart-phone and tablet numbers snow-balling this trend looks set to continue well into the future. Indeed, it is true to say that in today’s mobile world location-aware apps are becoming the norm rather than the exception. In Microsoft Mapping author Ray Rischpater showcases Microsoft's Bing Maps API and demonstrates how its integration features make it by far the strongest mapping candidate for business that are already using Windows 8 or the .NET Framework. Whether you want to build a new app from scratch of add a few modest geospatial features to your existing website Ray's carefully chosen examples will provide you with both the inspiration and the code you need to achieve your goals.
