GIS Cartography A Guide to Effective Map Design, Second Edition Gretchen N. Peterson PetersonGIS, Seattle, Washington, USA

“This book is an excellent text for the practicing GIS professional and for anyone who wants to know both the theoretical as well as practical underpinnings of cartography.”

—Jack Dangermond, Esri President

New to the Second Edition • Projection theory • Hexagonal binning • Big data point density maps • Scale-dependent map design

“Ms. Peterson provides easy-to-understand, detailed guidance on creating effective mapped communications. … an excellent resource for geo-professionals and early career mapmakers alike. … significantly contributes to better communications between mapmakers and the decision makers and consumers who need to understand phenomena being mapped. I highly recommend it to readers who want to tell the story of their studies in maps and don’t want limitations in design to detract from their important analytical message.”

—J. Edward Pickle, Chief Executive Officer, Boundless

“Gretchen Peterson demystifies successful cartographic communication. She reveals that it is not talent or templates that make great maps; it is the insightful coordination of each graphic element. In user-friendly language, Peterson presents insight that cartographers and GIS professionals—at all levels—can use to improve the quality of the work.”

—Dave Imus, Imus Geographics

An Introduction to Ecological Economics Second Edition Robert Costanza, John Cumberland, Herman Daly, Robert Goodland, and Richard Norgaard

Praise for the First Edition: ‘Ecological economics is arguably the single most important academic discipline today. Indeed, one of the most cheering events in the last decade or so has been the increasing cooperation of ecologists and economists, and the gradual reintegration of their disciplines. An Introduction to Ecological Economics provides students with the results of that cooperation, giving an excellent overview of ecological economics today.”

—Paul R. Ehrlich, Bing Professor of Population Studies, Stanford University

“What a splendid overview of what will likely prove to be one of the most vital of all disciplines in the new millennium. Contrary to much conventional economics, the authors demonstrate—with splendid élan and massive documentation—that the global economy is a wholly owned subsidiary of the planetary ecosystem. I have just one basic reaction: right on, write on.”

—Norman Myers, Green College, Oxford University, and Senior Fellow, World Wildlife Fund

This completely revised and updated second edition integrates the study and management of ecological and economic needs, sustaining both “nature’s household” and “humankind’s household.” Written by five of the leading figures in the field, it provides a unified understanding of natural and human-dominated ecosystems and reintegrates market economics within the limits posed by the biophysical world. This new edition adds a series of boxes to expand and update information in the current text and addresses forefront topics such as the historical development of economics and ecology and motivation for incorporating humans into ecosystems.

• Provides a unified understanding of natural and human-dominated ecosystems • Represents perhaps the only route to a sustainable future • Reintegrates market economics with the limits of the biophysical world

Selected Contents: Humanity’s Current Dilemma The Global Ecosystem and the Economic Subsystem From Localized Limits to Global Limits Population and Poverty Beyond Brunt Land Toward Sustainability The Fragmentation of Economics and the Natural Sciences The Historical Development of Economics and Ecology The Early Codevelopment of Economics and Natural Science Economics and Ecology Specialize and Separate The Reintegration of Ecology and Economics Problems and Principles of Ecological Economics Sustainable Scale, Fair Distribution, and Efficient Allocation Ecosystems, Biodiversity, and Ecological Services Substitutability vs. Complementarity of Natural, Human, and Manufactured Capital Population and Carrying Capacity Measuring Welfare and Well-Being Valuation, Choice, and Uncertainty Trade and Community Policies, Institutions, and Instruments The Need to Develop a Shared Vision of a Sustainable Society History of Environmental Institutions and Instruments Successes, Failures, and Remedies Policy Instruments Further Reading References Index Catalog no.
