Discover the hidden patterns in human society as you have never seen them before - through the world of data. Humans generate data with nearly everything we do. This world of information is invisible, but it profoundly influences society.

In Atlas of the Invisible, award-winning geographer and designer team James Cheshire and Oliver Uberti redefine what an atlas can be. Transforming enormous data sets into rich maps and innovative visualizations, they uncover truths about our past, reflect who we are today, and highlight challenges we'll face in the future. With their playful and curious approach, Cheshire and Uberti explore happiness and anxiety levels worldwide; they trace the undersea cables and cell towers that connect us; they examine hidden scars of geopolitics; and illustrate how a warming planet impacts everything from hurricanes to the pilgrimage to Mecca.

Years in the making, Atlas of the Invisible invites readers to marvel at the potential and dangers of data, and to discover the secrets and contours of a newly visible world.
