William Rankin is a historian of science at Yale University, where he focuses on the history of mapping and the geographic sciences. Born and raised outside Chicago, he was originally trained as an architect before receiving a dual PhD in the history of science and architecture from Harvard. His research explores the intersection of science, technology, and space: how has science changed the way we place ourselves in the world, and how have the places and spaces of science changed the way that knowledge is produced? In addition to his work as a historian, he is also an award-winning cartographer, and his maps – available at www.radicalcartography.net – have appeared in books, magazines, and exhibits around the world.
