520 "Venture to twenty-eight cities around the world in this
colorfully illustrated collection of maps that take you on
a journey through history, culture, and geography. On each
page, you'll visit a different city. And in each city,
you'll explore the metaphorical resonance between the
physical metropolis and its inhabitants, history, and
culture. In the hands of a creative cartographer,
Manhattan is dissected in an anatomical diagram, the
streets of Monaco trace the form of a Picasso nude, and
the crisscrossing paths of boats on the Bosphorus become
the nerves of Istanbul. Travel as you never have traveled
before, and revel in the details that define urban life.
By laying bare the bone, muscle, and sinew of twenty-eight
cities, these maps reveal the unique spirit of each one
and shed light on the strange and marvelous ways in which
humans interact with the places they call home. Witty and
insightful, this book will capture the imaginations of
travelers, map enthusiasts, history buffs, and dreamers."-
