It should be stated on the outset: this is an excellent textbook recommended for
all geographers, students and teachers alike. The book excels in many aspects: its
content is rich and well balanced, its clarity is superb, and it is replete with examples
and exercises. The book is user-friendly to students who are interested in understanding the application of statistical tests and in properly interpreting the results, rather than in delving in the mathematics involved.

(Shaul Krakover)I am Professor of Geography and Biostatistics at the University at Buffalo. My research interests are in the area of demography and population change, epidemiology, spatial statistics, and spatial analysis. My current work is focused upon the development of new methods for the quick detection of newly emergent clusters in geographic data (for example, how does one determine as quickly as possible whether there is a new cluster of crime or disease?).
