      abstract = {"What is a map? How have people been drawing the world  throughout history? What do maps say about us? In [this  book], Thomas Reinertsen Berg takes us from the mysterious  symbols of the Stone Age to Google Earth, exploring how the  ability to envision what the world looks like developed  hand in hand with worldwide exploration. This fascinating  tale of science and strategy, art and technology, power and  ambition, practical needs and distant dreams of the  unknown, tells a new story about world history and the  people who made it. We encounter visionary geographers and  heroic explorers along with the unknown heroes of the  mapmaking world, both ancient and modern. Theater of the  World is above all a celebration of the extraordinary men  and women mapmakers whose work has made history."--Dust  jacket.},
