Summary |
"An unprecedented portrait of the hidden patterns in human society-visualized through the world of data. Geographer-designer team James Cheshire and Oliver Uberti transform enormous datasets into maps and visualizations. They uncover truths about our past, reveal who we are today, and highlight what we face in the years ahead. With their joyfully inquisitive approach, Cheshire and Uberti explore happiness levels around the globe, trace the undersea cables and cell towers that connect us, examine hidden scars of geopolitics, and illustrate how a warming planet affects everything from hurricanes to the hajj."-- Provided by publisher. |
