that open up. Although the author, Crampton has primarily used the Foucauldian concepts of problematization, subjecti cation, and technologies of the self prominently, these are also contrasted and sometimes related to the ideas of other theorists like Martin Heidegger, Brian Harley, Paul Virilio and Mark Monmonier. This not only brings in diverse viewpoints but also elevates the discussions wherein the reader can himself/herself get a glimpse of the numerous possibilities. This book, though dealing with dense concepts, has been lucidly written. However, it is not immediately apparent who the target audience is. The book can serve as an introductory text on the politics of mapping with cyberspace as the context. However, the apparent diversity of topics and complexities of related issues calls for a more exhaustive treatment, perhaps in a future work by the author. Nevertheless, the rigour and the painstaking hard work of the author that shines through the lucid discussions, makes this work a possible authoritative source and an important reference for future critical cyberspace studies that deal with the interplay between cartography and politics.
