Rethinking the Power of Maps - by Denis Wood
A contemporary follow-up to the groundbreaking Power of Maps, this book takes a fresh look at what maps do, whose interests they serve, and how they can be used in surprising, creative, and radical ways. Denis Wood describes how cartography facilitated the rise of the modern state and how maps continue to embody and project the interests of their creators. He demystifies the hidden assumptions of mapmaking and explores the promises and limitations of diverse counter-mapping practices today. Thought-provoking illustrations include U.S. Geological Survey maps; electoral and transportation maps; and numerous examples of critical cartography, participatory GIS, and map art. $30.00

The Natures of Maps - by Denis Wood and John Fels
The Natures of Maps: Cartographic Constructions of the Natural World; by Denis Wood and John Fels; Foreword by John Pickles; 231 pages, 179 color plates, 16 halftones 11'' x 11'' © 2008; Cloth $49.00 This book is a provocative, and richly illustrated extension of the arguments initiated by Denis Wood in his 2006 SEEING THROUGH MAPS book (co-authored with Kaiser & Abramms) in which the closing chapter was titled, “Are maps TALK instead of pictures?” In this 2008 book, lavished produced by the University of Chicago Press, Wood & Fels again take on the notion that maps are far from objective representations of the world. Rather, every map reflects the agendas and intentions of its creators. They present a compelling exploration of a wide range of maps to answer the question of, as they put it, why maps have “gotten away with it.”

Denis Wood will present a Workshop at Your School
Denis Wood can be described as an ''agent provocateur'' inside the geography establishment. His edgy humor, insightful analysis, and remarkable wit and insight are available to ODT's grand prize winner for an inservice event or public talk. Wood's editorial reviews are often stinging and sarcastic as he calls out hypocrisy and inflated cartographic self-importance whereever he finds them. Wood will take a local road map or tourism map from your region, and expose the hidden agendas, and self-serving motives that often go undetected. He'll push your group to the limits, as he challenges assumptions about how we see our world...whether globally or locally.

This groundbreaking documentary dissects a slanderous aspect of cinematic history that has run virtually unchallenged from the earliest days of silent film to today's biggest Hollywood blockbusters. Featuring acclaimed author Dr. Jack Shaheen, the film explores a long line of degrading images of Arabs--from Bedouin bandits and submissive maidens to sinister sheikhs and gun-wielding ''terrorists''--along the way offering devastating insights into the origin of these stereotypic images, their development at key points in US history, and why they matter so much today.
