"Christmas has arrived early this year!
When I went into the Department this morning I found a copy of your
splendid new 'Geospatial Analysis' in my pigeon hole! It looks
a magnificent handbook for all those working in this field: how I
wish I'd had something like this to hand when I was struggling with
'Locational analysis...' more than forty years ago."
Emeritus Prof Peter
Haggett,University of Bristol ,UK
"Your wonderful
website was announced on the email groupopenspace@sal.uiuc.edu,
which I read at work at the Census Bureau. I enjoy keeping up with
geographic research techniques, even when I don't have occasion to
use them often at work."

"I have studied your book in great detail and
have decided to convert one of my regular taught MSc modules so as
to map onto it direct [to be renamed "Geospatial Analysis"]. I would
be interested in obtaining multiple copies of the book in digital
format for next year's MSc intake of around 25-30."

Abrahart, University of
Nottingham,

versions now ordered and supplied)
"Congratulations. This is a wonderful
effort."

"This is a
wonderful book for advanced users. I found the Chapter 2 Conceptual
Framework very helpful in my own research."
Prof R LeGates,
Professor of Urban Studies,
San
Francisco
State
University
"An excellent
book that addresses many of the questions raised by students and
lecturers about spatial analysis in one location with a range of
delivery that suits all pockets, from
the e-book, to hopefully a hardback colour version for library use.
A good range of links and good example data sets
used to explain the concepts. I am sure the additional changes
you suggest will make the next version of greater use across a
broader range of applications"
Dr Andrew Skellern,
GIS Course Director, Bath Spa University, UK
"Thank you for sending
me valuable info. This site is wonderful!!"

"Congratulations on
the publication of Geospatial Analysis which I am looking forward to
reading and using. I offer four undergraduate and four postgraduate
GIS modules at UCD. I look forward to integrating your new book in
these modules."

"What I have read about 'Geospatial Analysis
- A Comprehensive Guide to Principles, Techniques and Software
Tools' sound very promising. I would like to use it partially in a
GIS course I am teaching next semester."

Munster,

"I am asking my
secretary to order a print copy and look forward to both it and the
PDF version. I also will explore with you options for using the text
in an academic setting ... I think it would fit well with my
"Geospatial Data Processing Techniques in Natural Resources
Management."

Daniel Civco , Professor of Geomatics and
Director Natural Resources Management and

Connecticut,USA
"The first edition of 'Geospatial Analysis: A
comprehensive guide to principles, techniques, and software tools'
was a landmark publication in GIScience. The second edition
with updated sections and new additions tied to the UCGIS Body of
Knowledge is expected to make a cannonball-size splash in the
geospatial literature pool. Web and e-book versions should be
well-received and increase the availability of this important
volume. The first edition was found on every library shelf, but
the second edition will find its way to millions of desktops,
laptops and handhelds. "

Sensing and Mapping Science (CRMS),
