Cartographic Relief Presentation
Eduard Imhof's classic book Cartographic Relief Presentation is once again available. Within the discipline of cartography, few works are considered classics in the sense of retaining their interest, relevance, and inspiration with the passage of time. One such work is Imhof's masterpiece on relief representation. As a unique display of analysis and portrayal, this is an outstanding example of the need for cartography to combine intellect and graphics in solving map design problems. The range, detail, and scientific artistry of his solutions are presented in a teaching context that puts this work in a class by itself, with universal significance..

The Other Venice: Secrets of the City (Reaktion Books - Topographics)
To know a city is to become intimately intertwined with its nooks, crevices, secret passageways, and dark places where its lifeblood flows—and what city has more of those than Venice? In The Other Venice, Predrag Matvejevic ventures past the infamous canals and cobblestone streets of the tourist’s Venice to find the heart of the ancient Italian metropolis.
A lyric re-imagining of the City of Romance, The Other Venice utterly reconfigures the Venetian landscape, as Matvejevic follows both real and imaginary maps, contemporary and historical, to trace out the details of this sensuous city. He probes into what the ancient metropolis means to its people, the nation, and global culture. But he also finds hints of life in the smallest and most mundane details—ancient bridges, rust-flecked boats, wall sculptures, rivers, and piazzas scattered throughout the city. Each has a little-known story and with Matvejevic as our guide, he reveals the stories behind them all.
The book carries readers to a Venice that has escaped the eyes of writers, artists, and photographers through the centuries, and Matejevic by turns plays a historian, cartographer, anthropologist, and philologist as he unravels elusive artifacts of time past. Arresting black-and-white photographs by renowned photographer Sarah Quill accompany the text, offering a silent testament to Matvejevic’s pilgrimage. A fascinating and beautifully written guide, The Other Venice reminds us that there is always another mystery to uncover in the city of water and stone.

Macao (Topographics)
A former Portuguese-administered enclave on the Chinese coast, Macao became a meeting point of cultures drawn from many parts of the world. A flourishing trade turned it into a rich warehouse, where more goods were traded than anywhere else. But Macao has also been a place of debauchery, with gambling dives, opium dens, pleasure houses, and an astonishingly successful smuggling industry. In this evocative text, Pons describes both Macao_s colorful past and the dramatic changes the 20th-century has seen, revealing its charms yet lamenting the passing of an era. Philippe Pons is the Tokyo correspondent for Le Monde. He is the author of many books, including From Edo to Tokyo: Memory and Modernity. .
