I bought this as a xmas present but ended up reading it cover-to-cover before wrapping it. It's a neat book if you like this sort of thing.

Terrific collection of -- just as it says -- strange maps, from the eponymous website. A few are deliberately offbeat, but most appear to be entirely serious in intent.. The mapped regions go from Manhattan to the largest moon of Saturn, and the topics mapped from straight (sort of) geography to French kisses. Any map devotee will love this one, and it will also appeal to devotees of the unusual. Great Xmas gift for the right person

Great book with lots of pictures and great information. Got this for my brother who is studying GIS. It makes a great coffee table book and is fun to look at. It is educational and interesting - not as textbooky as some other info-graphic books are.

This is a fun and fact filled book about weird maps. Some are historical, some fantastic, some artistic, some political, some...well just weird.

Personally, I enjoyed the historical maps myself. But there's something for everyone here. Now, yes, this book is so eclectic that's it's unlikely you will like everything. "Skip on a bit, brother."

You will get a chuckle or two and maybe even learn something.

A great collection of odd maps of real and imagined spaces. It is great to experience how much our thoughts can shift by simply looking at what we think we know and understand depicted in a different way.
