"A beautiful new book called MAP: Exploring the World is the perfect insight into the world of cartography, with the book featuring rare and ancient maps from pioneers, illustrators and cartographers.
And it’s not just geographical – the book shows the way in which design, politics, and how we see ourselves has changed as the world has evolved.
The maps tell their own stories in their own way across 5,000 years of cartographic innovation, from the first attempts by the Greeks and scrolls of Eastern Asia, to the complexity of modern life."
