Extractions: RESEARCH GUIDE: WEB GUIDE TO MAPS OF THE MIDDLE EAST By Lawrence Joffe A good map is worth ten thousand words. And luckily, the net is a veritable treasure chest of useful topographical charts. In addition to locating places, maps can provide information. For instance, you may want to know at a glance the population density of Lebanon, how long does it takes to fly somewhere, where exactly are those "safe passages" between Gaza and Jericho, which parts of Yemen were worst effected by floods in 1996, how many refugee camps does Jordan have, how high are the Golan Heights, or even where might I get a good bowl of foul medames in downtown Cairo? The problem is locating this information, and sifting the useful from the merely decorative. So to provide a rudimentary compass of sorts, here is MERIA's (necessarily incomplete) Web Guide to Maps of the Middle East. I have divided the guide into six categories, but inevitably there is a tremendous amount of overlap. GOOD REFERENCE MAPS INTERACTIVE MAPS HISTORICAL MAPS ANALYTICAL MAPS AND CHARTS MAPS JUST ABOUT IRAQ MAPS FROM AN EARLIER GENERATION 1. GOOD REFERENCE MAPS

Proximity is importantunderstanding geography helps to explain why Zimbabwe is not much like Moscow, but shares characteristics with Egypt. It is important to understand things and places which are close, and those which are far apart. The horror and sorrow of September 11, 2001 will be with us for a long time. Almost all news now is international news. Our children and students need to know what is happening in their country and their world. The first part of knowing our world, and understanding what will happen now, is to know where places are. It is easy to fail to recognize the humanity of other peoples when we do not even know where they live. American men and women are now fighting far from home; we owe it to them to at least know where they are. Maps are vital to our understanding geography and the world we live in. They can be beautiful and fascinating, but if they are completely unfamiliar it can be difficult to learn from them.
