This guidebook presents futures, and reconsiders the present, in the Great Lakes Region through exploring relationships to the built environment of sedentary communities. Research into Nomadism uncovered that many nomadic communities have long been cognizant of the relationships…
The conditions beneath glaciers and ice-sheets including the topography, hydrology, and geology are essential for understanding ice dynamics, interpreting ice-sheet history, and predicting ice-sheet retreat and sea-level-rise in response to a changing climate. Located in remote …
The proponents of Intelligent Design Creationism (IDC) contend that modern scientific explanations are incomplete and inadequate because they tell us nothing about the sanctity of human value and purpose. Since, in their view, all value and purpose originates from God, a more co…
This research draws on Clifford Geertz’s understanding of ethnography as “thick description” and applies it through David Bodenhamer’s notion of “deep mapping” in order to analyze societal and political structures framing the music making of prisoners in the South from 1933–1940…
Making space for imagination can shift research and community planning from a reflective stance to a "future forming" orientation and practice. Cultural mapping is an emerging discourse of collaborative, community-based inquiry and advocacy. This book looks at artistic approache…
This textbook examines the choices considered when creating geographic representations and cartographic representations, transforming spherical coordinates to planar coordinates, and modeling geographic data. Harvey (geography, University of Minnesota) introduces the three gener…

This volume ventures into terrain where even the most sophisticated map fails to lead -- through the mapmaker's bias. Denis Wood shows how maps are not impartial reference objects, but rather instruments of communication, persuasion, and power. Like paintings, they express a poi…

The present dissertation offers six articles revolving around the use of maps and cartographic technologies in various media. The research quest across the length of the work's chapters--from cartographic uses in therapeutic methods and inter-personal communication to their use …
This book complements the growing body of literature exploring the relationships between arts and cartography. It is distinct from the previous ones by its main focus: the multiple ways of representing a database. In the context of the exponential increase of the volume of geosp…
