Mapping Society The Spatial Dimensions Of Social Cartography Laura Vaughan by Laura Vaughan 9781787353077, 1787353079 instant download after payment.

From a rare map of yellow fever in eighteenth-century New York to
Charles Booth's famous maps of poverty in nineteenth-century London, an
Italian racial zoning map of early twentieth-century Asmara, and a map
of wealth disparities in the banlieues of twenty-first-century Paris, Mapping Society
traces the evolution of social cartography over the past two centuries.
In this richly illustrated book, Laura Vaughan examines maps of ethnic
or religious difference, poverty, and health inequalities, demonstrating
how they not only serve as historical records of social enquiry but
also constitute inscriptions of social patterns that have been etched
deeply on the surface of cities. The book covers themes such as the use
of visual rhetoric to change public opinion, the evolution of sociology
as an academic practice, changing attitudes to physical disorder, and
the complexity of segregation as an urban phenomenon. While the focus is
on historical maps, the narrative carries the discussion of the spatial
dimensions of social cartography forward to the present day, showing
how disciplines such as public health, criminology, and urban planning
chart spatial data in their current practice.
