The History of Cartography, Volume 1: Cartography in

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Harley, J. B. / Woodward, David, PUBLISHER: University of Chicago Press, By developing the broadest and most inclusive definition of the term "map" ever adopted in the history of cartography, this inaugural volume of the "History of Cartography" series has helped redefine the way maps are studied and understood by scholars in a number of disciplines. Volume One addresses the prehistorical and historical mapping traditions of premodern Europe and the Mediterranean world. A substantial introductory essay surveys the historiography and theoretical development of the history of cartography and situates the work of the multi-volume series within this scholarly tradition. Cartographic themes include an emphasis on the spatial-cognitive abilities of Europe's prehistoric peoples and their transmission of cartographic concepts through media such as rock art; the emphasis on mensuration, land surveys, and architectural plans in the cartography of Ancient Egypt and the Near East; the emergence of both theoretical and practical cartographic knowledge in the Greco-Roman world; and the parallel existence of diverse mapping traditions ("mappaemundi," portolan charts, local and regional cartography) in the Medieval period. Throughout the volume, a commitment to include cosmographical and celestial maps underscores the inclusive definition of "map" and sets the tone for the breadth of scholarship found in later volumes of the series.

Out of Order: Stories from the History of the Supreme Court

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “I called this book Out of Order because it reflects my goal,which is to share a different side of the Supreme Court. Most people know the Court only as it exists between bangs of the gavel,when the Court comes to order to hear arguments or give opinions. But the stories of the Court and the Justices that come from the ‘out of order’ moments add to the richness of the Court as both a branch of our government and a human institution.”—Justice Sandra Day O’C
