Mapping: An Illustrated Guide to Graphic Navigational Systems

Mapping focuses on information design, one of the core graphic design practices.

Designers now recognize the value to business and society of their ability to make complex information comprehensible. The scope of Mapping uniquely goes far beyond the few available books on cartography, revealing the visual language of location, direction, spatial and structural relationships, which are central to this crucial sector of the graphic arts. It explores "maps" as varied as subway systems and websites, symbolic maps such as those for chemical compounds, and designs for mapping time, including calendars and timetables.
