Reviews
From the reviews:
“It offers a rich and diverse collection of representations of Montreal as a unique place, as an informative set of insights about the city. … The book is highly readable, and the papers are accessible and well written. … As a working model for mapping research in urban environments, this collection provides a valuable transferable example for the mapping of any city, with findings unique to that particular urban context.” (Kaye Shumack, Cartographica, Vol. 47 (2), 2012)Editors and Affiliations
