From the global impact of the Coronavirus to exploring the vast spread of the Australian bush fires, join authors Ian Goldin and Robert Muggah as they trace the ways in which our world has changed and the ways in which it will continue to change over the next hundred years.

Map-making is an ancient impulse. From the moment homo sapiens learnt to communicate we have used them to make sense of our surroundings. But as Albert Einstein once said, ‘you can’t use old maps to explore a new world.’ And now, when the world is changing faster than ever before, our old maps are no longer fit for purpose.

Welcome to Terra Incognita. Based on decades of research, and combining mesmerising, state-of-the-art satellite maps with enlightening and passionately argued analysis, Ian and Robert chart humanity’s impact on the planet, and the ways in which we can make a real impact to save it, and to thrive as a species.

Learn about: fires in the arctic; the impact of sea level rise on cities around the world; the truth about immigration - and why fears in the West are a myth; the counter-intuitive future of population rise; the miracles of health and education that are waiting around the corner, and the reality about inequality, and how we end it. The book traces the paths of peoples, cities, wars, climates and technologies, all on a global scale. Full of facts that will confound you, inform you, and ultimately empower you, Terra Incognita guides readers to a new place of understanding, rather than to a physical location.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 「必讀之書！」－－Arianna Huffington，《赫芬頓郵報》創辦人

terra incognita，(發音為/??ter.?? ??????k??ɡ.n??.t??/)，在拉丁文中意為「unknown land」，指的是一個尚未被人所知，或尚未被人所發現的地區、陸地或領域。

人類的活動對地球造成巨大的衝擊，這不是秘密，但是我們究竟造成了多大的影響？這個地球很可能已經不是我們過去所認知的樣貌，為了在未來的一百年人類能繼續生存下去，我們迫切需要全新的地圖──這一百幅真實描繪出最新地球樣貌的地圖。

從新型冠狀病毒(COVID-19)疫情對全球的衝擊，到延燒數月的澳洲野火，牛津大學教授、經濟學家與全球化與發展專家Ian Goldin以及全球知名的政治經濟專家Robert Muggah，將以一百幅地圖，帶領我們看見這個世界被如何改變，以及在未來一百年將如何演變。

從古老的年代，人類就一直在繪製地圖，但如同愛因斯坦所說：「你無法使用舊地圖來探索新世界。」現在，地球被如此迅速的改變，我們的舊地圖早就不再適用。

歡迎探索未知的境域，兩位作者以他們數十年的研究，結合令人著迷的最新衛星地圖，提出最震撼人的分析，你將會震驚人類活動對整個地球的衝擊和影響，以及我們又該如何真正做出改變來拯救它，來使我們這個種族繼續存續下去。 (Zoe)
