Rezension zu „Atlas of Science “
"In today's confusing and fast-changing world, if we are to shape our children's lives for the best, it is essential that we understand what science is thinking, where it's coming from, and where it's going. This fascinating, lucid, brilliantly illustrated book shows us all that." --James Burke, author of Connections "Featuring one unique and intriguing visual design after another, Atlas of Science illustrates the origin and evolution of science mapping." --Chaomei Chen, Drexel University, author of Mapping Scientific Frontiers "Science is a voyage of discovery and Katy Borner has provided its first atlas. This excellent book offers a compendium of all that is best in explaining visual maps of our scientific knowledge." --Michael Batty, University College London, author of Cities and Complexity: Understanding Cities with Cellular Automata, Agent-Based Models, and Fractals (MIT Press)
