Map Projections : Theory and Applications, Hardcover by Pearson, Frederick, II, ISBN 084936888X, ISBN-13 9780849368882, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK The problem of the cartographer is to construct on plane paper a representation of the geographical facts which in reality are written onto the surface of a (distorted) sphere. Solutions are necessarily imperfect, at best merely adequate (more or less) to the specific tasks at hand. The author provides close students of the field with a detailed account of the mathematical aspects of the problem and its diversely compromised "solutions", emphasizing (especially in the ninth of his ten chapters) the role of the computer. Many figures and examples, essential references. (NW) Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
