#DavidVine's book Base Nation looks really good. I lapsed from reading #TomDispatch for a few years but #TomEngelhardt's work with #ChalmersJohnson makes it easier to appreciate the maps in #BaseNation. #InformationDesign techniques can be used for worthy causes, like learning #Geography it prevent wars before they happen. God won't have to use wars to teach us anymore, we can be proactive. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

> Base Nation[2015], the sequel to Vine’s.. #IslandOfShame (2009)..his project on what the late #ChalmersJohnson called the #Baseworld. Base Nation is.. a work of huge ambition..commendable and..inhibiting..the book..[is] a distressing and..helpful resource for grappling with the #GlobalGeography of the #AmericanArmedForces. #BaseNation also contains some of the most effective original #maps I have encountered in a study of such scale.
