Political Book Map


Since I'm taking a mapping and diagramming class, I've been looking around at some interesting ways of mapping data. This book network map, created using Amazon's "Customers Who Purchased This Also Bought..." data, is pretty neat.

I bet there's a lot of these book and music networks, linked by some sort of metadata. I wonder how he determined the political leanings of those how purchased these books (aside from the content of the books themselves).
