located. Brilliant Maps for Curious Minds uses creative cartography
to highlight assorted facts and figures."

"Fascinating maps that show the world as you’ve never seen it."
*The Telegraph*
"Information is beautiful and is beautifully arranged in the Maps
for Curious Minds books. They’re a testament to the power of
discovering facts and figures that you didn’t know you didn’t know.
I have flicked back and forth through these books, (because they
are perfect for dipping in and out of) exclaiming ‘I did not know
that!’ They’re those sorts of books."
*GeekDad*
"This simple book serves the schoolroom for all ages, the coffee
table of any household, the shelf in any library, and a font of
wonderfulness for any trivia gamer."
*New York Journal of Books*

nature, etc.), these maps cover topics serious and less so . . .
Whether browsing or looking for report inspiration, this visual,
trivia-filled offering will get teens thinking outside the
box."

"Become enthralled by this one-of-a-kind atlas of 100 full-color,
