4.0 out of 5 stars
Comprehensive yet concise,
By A Customer
This review is from: The World in Perspective: A Directory of World Map Projections (Paperback)
Ten years ago I searched high and low for a "cookbook" of the formulas used for map projections. I found lots of theory, but little of practical use until The World in Perspective.Each projection is covered by a page of text and a page of graphics. The text provides a description, including pros and cons of using the projection, and the transformation formulas. The graphics show both the projection and the distortion resulting from the projection. Yes, this book is expensive (I bought my hard-back copy for $70 eight years ago). But for the special need it fills, it's worth it. |
