Geographer Chris McDowall and designer Tim Denee's book We Are Here is a large hardback atlas that is much more than a collection of maps, charts, graphs and diagrams.
There is a strong narrative running through the book, and each chapter starts with an essay by some of the country's writers and thinkers, which provides a focus to the visual data and reveals insights into who we are and how we live.
The book is not only a reflection of New Zealand's diversity of people and whenua, but also speaks to how we interact with our environment.
