Want to learn mapmaking with real-world data even if you’ve never coded before? Here’s the beginner-proof book that takes you from “How do I start?” to “Look what I just built in R.” Let me show you. 👇🏻

My new book Mapping Worlds with R is a step-by-step journey from zero to polished mapmaker. Whether you’re a student, researcher, analyst, or curious storyteller, this guide is your shortcut to spatial mastery: no jargon, no guesswork.

What’s inside? • 11 hands-on projects • Real-world datasets (no dummy CSVs) • Clear, annotated code • Ethical, publication-quality maps • Bonus GitHub repo to clone and remix • Lifetime updates included

The 3 maps you see in the post? Yep, those are just a sample of what you’ll build by the time you finish the book. And you’ll know exactly why every step matters.

You’ll walk away with: • A plug-and-play portfolio • A repeatable workflow • Clean, modern design skills • Tools for data cleaning, joining & visualization in R • Confidence to map anywhere in the world
