[Yosem Companys]

http://www.kitchin.org/atlas/index.html

The Atlas of Cyberspace, by Martin Dodge and Rob Kitchin, is the first
comprehensive book to explore the spatial and visual nature of cyberspace
and its infrastructure.

It uses a user-friendly, approachable style to examine why cyberspace is
being mapped and what new cartographic and visualisation techniques have
been employed.

Richly illustrated with over 300 full colour images, it comprehensively
catalogues 30 years worth of maps that reveal the rich and varied landscapes
of cyberspace.

The book includes chapters detailing:
- mapping Internet infrastructure and traffic flows
- mapping the Web
- mapping online conversation and community
- imagining cyberspace in art, literature, and film

Note: Full book is available as free PDF via CCC license:
