dc.descriptionThis book explores an arena of cartographic creativity largely ignored by map historians: the patent system, whereby an inventor can lay claim to a novel idea and control its use for two decades. As I argue in Chap. 1, the patent system is not just a way to get ideas in print but also a parallel literature, similar in fundamental ways to the conventional academic-scientifictechnical literature of books and journal articles. Although the patent system appeals to a different kind of innovator—someone with a product in mind and a decidedly more practical bent than the typical scholar—it is a coherent literature, with a vetting process, distribution channels, citation protocols, and searchable databases.-
