Prehistoric ‘Taskscapes’
It is highly conceivable that prehistoric peoples richly narrated and celebrated their lives and relationship with their environment, but, with no written records available and limited artefacts, recent generations have created their own narratives of the lives of these peoples. This article examines visual representations of prehistoric (‘Stone Age’) societies in popular science published in Britain from 1960s to the present. Stereotyping of gen…
Paleoart
What, you are probably asking, is a review of a book on paleoart – Visions of the Prehistoric Past – doing in a cartographic publication? At one level it's personal – I am simply fascinated by reco
Maps and identity
This chapter introduces the concept of Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) within the practices of mapping and cartography. It provides an accessible overview of the area, which has grown rapidly since the mid 2000s and defines what we mean by VGI. VGI is at the centre of a wide scientific community that focuses on the harnessing of new sources of GI, and on satisfying the spatial turn fuelled by the neogeography revolution, a revolution whi…
Mapping the War Zone
Maps are an increasingly important element of the news media's coverage of geopolitics and war. To date few comprehensive surveys of journalistic cartography have been undertaken, yet computer graphics and new spatial database technologies are allowing publishers to exploit geographic information more fully and to produce timely and vivid representations of war zones and related matters. This paper draws on the results of a longitudinal survey (1…
Whatever Happened to the 'New Cartography
Maps and related graphics are important means of representing key issues in development education and related themes. This paper examines the use of world maps in materials used in teaching development in higher education and concludes that many are not 'fit for purpose'. Many of these maps create false connotations, which can lead to misleading understandings of key issues

Private Worlds and Public Places
For people with locomotor difficulties space can frequently raise insurmountable problems which at first sight may seem so trivial to able-bodied persons that they become ignored. Space is often difficult to deal with, but seldom are the views of the physically disabled acknowledged in mapping and urban design
Contorted, Folded, Torn
This paper explores the merit of incorporating the personal geographies of individuals with impaired mobility into the production of access and mobility maps. If cartographers take it upon themselves to produce maps without first seeking to understand these geographies or images of place, they are likely to infuse their work with their own values and meanings. This becomes especially important if it is accepted that maps may have a political role…
