Packs in so much of our astronomical knowledge,so many tidbits about the history of astronomy and space exploration thatI felt wonderfully enriched by it all.The book managed to surprise me in so many different ways. It isvisually striking and beautifully illustrated
Praise forVargic's Miscellany of Curious Maps
Beautiful
It's a cliché to say an artistcan change the way you look at the world- but Martin Vargic truly has.
This isa must read
Bitingly satirical
Aphenomenalcollection
Amazing
Gorgeous
Martin Vargic's maps of the world look like they belong on parchment, hung on walls of estates that no one can really afford . . . but there's more to the world than piles of dirt and great swathes of sea water . . .his cartography creates an indirect commentary on how cultural proximities are every bit as relevant in the digital age as geographical ones.
