Recenzje

'A much welcomed and timely addition to the bookshelf of practitioners interested in the quantitative analysis of geographical data. The book offers a clear and concise exposition to basic and advanced methods and tools of spatial analysis, solidifying understanding through worked real-world case studies based on state-of-the-art commercial (ArcGIS) and public-domain (GeoDA) software. Definitely a book to be routinely used as a reference on the practical implementation of key analytical methods by people employing geographical data across a wide spectrum of disciplines.'
