The detailed by hand and programmed examples that directly address the goals of the book would enable students to repeat the tests with the supplied data and then apply the techniques and thinking to their own data." 34 -- Christopher Hewitt Review Quote This book provides a lively introduction into spatial statistics. Several test statistics are presented and discussed from a traditional statistical point of departure. I can recommend the book in particular to quantitative geographers interested in spatial statistics.
