Many Ways to See the World DVD - 2nd ed.
Maps DO make a difference in how we see the world!
Many Ways To See The World presents twelve compelling world maps in a fast-paced program that changes the way its audiences view the world. Maps DO make a difference to how we see the world! Many Ways To See The World is a provocative learning tool that presents historical and current images to generate interest and awareness of maps and their messages.
The 30-minute DVD uses maps, images and stories to convey 3 powerful messages:
#We can only understand the world if we're willing to see things from multiple perspectives!
#The 'truth' must be seen from many vantage points.
#One person's voice can make a huge difference in the world!
Presenter is Dr Bob Abramms of ODT Inc, publisher of some of the maps shown in the DVD.
The DVD includes the story of how young Stuart McArthur developed McArthur's Universal Corrective Map with its unique downunder viewpoint. You will learn how Gerardus Mercator never intended to draw the world as many of us have always seen it!
Images created by Len Guelke, Arthur Robinson, Tom Van Sant, Arno Peters, Buckminster Fuller, Paul Hoffman (founder of EarthSeals) are featured players in this unique film.
