To solve this problem mapmakers have created hundreds of map projections, mathematical methods for drawing the round earth on a flat surface.

Flattening the Earth is the first detailed history of map projections since 1863. John P. Snyder discusses and illustrates the hundreds of known projections created from 500 B.C. to the present, emphasizing developments since the Renaissance and closing with a look at the variety of projections made possible by computers. The book contains 170 illustrations, including outline maps from original sources and modern computerized reconstructions.
