The new edition of the highly respected World Mapping Today is an essential reference for librarians and anyone concerned with the production, acquisition, distribution or use of maps and other forms of spatial data.

Building on the strengths of the first edition, the book has been entirely rewritten and greatly expanded and now includes: New reviews on the status of world mapping and the problems and possibilities of map and data acquisition in the electronic age Descriptions of mapping in individual countries contain information about both conventional and digital cartography Catalogue sections covering a broad range of material, both topographic and thematicIn addition there are lists of publishers' addresses for each country, now also including telephone and fax numbers, e-mail addresses and the URLs of useful websites.
