This book offers a much-needed critical approach to the intelligent
use of the wide variety of map projections that are rapidly and
inexpensively available today. It also discusses the distortions
that are immanent in any map projection. A well-chosen map
projection is one in which extreme distortions are smaller than
those in any other projection used to map the same area and in
which the map properties match its purpose. Written by leading
experts in the field, including W. Tobler, F.C. Kessler, S.E.
Battersby, M.P. Finn, K.C. Clarke, V.S. Tikunov, H. Hargitai, B.
Jenny and N. Francula. This book is designed for use by laymen. The
book editors are M. Lapaine and E.L. Usery, Chair and Vice-Chair,
respectively, of the ICA Commission on Map Projections for the
period 2011-2015.
