This is the Atlas of Clinical Vascular Medicine written in 2013 by Michael R. Jaff. The reason why I chose this as an interesting atlas to check out is because it is amazingly unique. This atlas is not of maps in a conventional way, but maps of diseases through a collection of words, pictures, and diagrams. It is amazing how when we think of maps we think of conventional maps with roads and nations, not guides to diseases. Yet that is exactly what a map is, a guide through directions, thoughts, and ideas.
