The Routledge Handbook of Geospatial Technologies and Society

Book cover: The Routledge Handbook of Geospatial Technologies and SocietyOut this week: The Routledge Handbook of Geospatial Technologies and Society (Routledge), a collection of essays edited by Alexander J. Kent and Doug Specht. “Contributors reflect on the changing role of geospatial technologies in society and highlight new applications that represent transformative directions in society and point towards new horizons. Furthermore, they encourage dialogue across disciplines to bring new theoretical perspectives on geospatial technologies, from neurology to heritage studies.” Via Matthew Edney, who’s got a chapter in it on pre-1884 geospatial technology.
