Originally published in 1952, The Look of Maps documents Arthur H. Robinson’s pivotal observation that the discipline of cartography rests at the crossroads of science and art. Based on his doctoral research, this book attempts to resolve the apparent disconnect by covering a range of topics related to the visual characteristics of cartographic technique, including: lettering, structure, and color. Robinson offers advice that even the modern cartographer will find relevant: adopt a "healthy questioning attitude" in order to improve and refine the graphic techniques used to present information visually through maps. The Look of Maps is a classic text and an essential component to any cartographic library.

Legal Foundations of Capitalism

The aim of this volume is to work out an evo-lutionary and behavioral theory of value. To do so thoroughly, Commons examines the decisions of the courts. Doing so compelled an exami-nation of what the courts mean by reasonable value. This edition is graced with a special introduction that places Commons in proper academic as well as intellectual context.

Josephus Daniels in Mexico

<p>The White House announcement in March, 1933, that President Roosevelt had appointed Josephus Daniels ambassador to Mexico resulted in an immediate and loud cry of protest from the Mexican people. For in 1914 when the U.S. Navy seized Veracruz, killing more than one hundred Mexicans, the man who gave the order was Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels, and his Assistant Secretary of the Navy at that time was Franklin D. Roosevelt. From the standpoint of long-range benefit to Mexico and the United States, Roosevelt could have made no better choice than Daniels Ironically, the 'villain' of the Veracruz incident proved to be one of the administration's staunchest foes of 'gunboatism' in American diplomacy. This book, while focusing on the work of Ambassador Daniels in Mexico from 1933 through 1941, throws important new light on the debate within the Roosevelt administration as to the nature and application of the Good Neighbor Policy.</p>
