Paperback. Condizione: Good. An illustrated history of explorers' maps and the questions they answer. More than the detailed representation of the geographical areas that their makers explored, maps reveal their makers' worldview as well as the myths, beliefs and legends of their times. By patiently creating maps, globes, charts and atlases, humans have sought to understand the universe and our place in it. Mapping the World explores many rare and fascinating mapping artifacts, beginning with the first crude drawings and progressing to the stunning satellite views of today. Many of these examples will be unfamiliar even to serious cartographers and collectors. Thirty essays answer the questions map-makers have asked and reveal the roles their maps played in finding those answers. Color reproductions of beautiful maps and charts include: A Chinese map dated to 1229 that shows the city's bridges, pagodas and gardens A French 15th-century interpretation of the four corners of the Earth A painted silk map of the universe dating from the 1830s A modern inverse world map from Australia's perspective The cosmos as imagined in 1750. With 87 maps in all, Mapping the World will fascinate general readers, map collectors, geographers, cartographers and historians.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. A New York Times Bestseller!2019 was the last great year for the globalized world economy.For generations, everything has been getting faster, better, and cheaper. Finally, we reached the point that almost anything you could ever want could be sent to your home within days - even hours - of when you decided you wanted it.America made that happen, but now America has lost interest in keeping it going.Globe-spanning supply chains are only possible with the protection of the U.S. Navy. The American dollar underpins internationalized energy and financial markets. Complex, innovative industries were created to satisfy American consumers. American security policy forced warring nations to lay down their arms. Billions of people have been fed and educated as the American-led trade system spread across the globe.All of this was artificial. All this was temporary. All this is ending.In The End of the World is Just the Beginning, author and geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan maps out the next world: a reality of deglobalization where countries or regions will have no choice but to make their own goods, grow their own food, secure their own energy, fight their own battles, and do it all with populations that are both shrinking and aging.This bracing work of geopolitical forecasting shows the list of countries that make it all work is smaller than you think. Which means everything about our interconnected world - from how we manufacture products, to how we grow food, to how we keep the lights on, to how we shuttle stuff about, to how we pay for it all - is about to change.A world ending. A world beginning. Zeihan brings readers along for an illuminating (and a bit terrifying) ride packed with economic foresight, wit, and his trademark irreverence.In this provocative forecast, Zeihan explains what the collapse of globalization means for our way of life:Demographic Collapse: Why shrinking, aging populations around the world?especially in China?mean the end of mass consumption and economic growth as we know it.Supply Chain Disruption: A world where countries must make their own goods, grow their own food, and secure their own energy when globe-spanning supply chains shatter.The Future of Energy: How the systems that keep the lights on and fuel our world will be forced to radically change, region by region.American Isolationism: Why the United States, which created and protected the globalized order, has lost interest?and how it can benefit from the collapse.…
