The World Mapped Like Never Before

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

In 50 world maps that ‘distil innumerable terabytes of data’ and ‘millions of hours of expertise’, this atlas describes natural phenomena – asteroid strikes, solar energy or ants – and human artefacts and activities as varied as undersea cables, guns and Twitter relationships. Whether showing bird diversity or happiness, these innovative maps illuminate the interconnectedness of nature and society: in Bonnett’s own example, the Ocean Rubbish map portrays the seas’ natural circulatory systems as well as our throwaway culture.
