This book is an overview of current research in the new area of Internet Cartography.
With this splendid volume comes a further direction for us to follow.
This book takes us through the decade or two in which mapping through the Internet has advanced from the primitive to the state of the art. We shouldn't deceive ourselves, however. Another decade or two will see us goodness knows where. Meanwhile, let us enjoy this book, which brings together chapters from 37 authors and 16 different countries. The editor admits this was a time consuming task. But well worth it.
The list of contributors is compendious and global.
