Not so long ago, dragons and monsters stalked our maps. Today, such maps might appear as fantastic embellishments. But what if our world is shaped just as much by myth and belief as it once was? And what if the world out there is not what we think it is? Paul Richardson challenges geographical determinism and shows how we perceive the world isn't how it really is. Eight punchy, authoritative chapters puncture long-held assumptions, including the Myth of the Border and the failure of Trump's wall; the Myth of the Continents; the Myth of China's New Silk Road; the Myth of Africa as needing saving by the West.
