Going somewhere? Take a journey into the human psyche with You Are Here: Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination. The book, due November 3 from Princeton Architectural Press, points out 155 works of unconventional cartography. These maps "find their essence in some other goal than just taking us from point A to point B," editor Katharine Harmon writes. The mapmakers - artists, molecular biologists, even a 3-year-old - use contour lines, baselines, satellite imagery, seismic tomography, and other tropes of the trade to chart (clockwise from top left) personal boundaries, the path to hell, British air routes, and an obsessive's worldview. You'll get lost in them before you know it.
