Cover for next academic book
A couple of days ago I received the proof for the next academic book to hit the shelves, which should happen sometime around November. I'm meant to provide some feedback. What do you think? (click on it to make it larger). It's a wrap around for a hardback, hence the flaps to the left and right of the main cover.

I like it, although grey isn't usually my favorite color for books.
Looks good to me. I used to work for an academic publisher and I don't remember their books having such cool covers, although I did not work in that area and the emphasis was history, not science.
Rob: It is a cover to catch the eye. Can you explain how it came to be?
Thanks for the feedback. Bill, I'm not sure of the provenance - the publisher commissions a designer who comes up with the idea. Since it's a geography book, a map of connections is apt. I suspect its a map of internet activity and flows.
