What is Rubinstein's example of map scale?

Rubinstein's example of map scale refers to a thought experiment illustrating how different scales can affect our perception and understanding of geographic information. He highlights that a map showing a particular area at a large scale provides detailed information about that area, while a smaller scale map offers a broader overview but less detail. This example emphasizes the importance of choosing the appropriate map scale based on the intended use and the level of detail required for effective communication of spatial information.
