  • Spatially Integrated Social Scienceby Michael F. Goodchild; Donald G. Janelle

    Oxford University Press 2004; US$ 119.99

    Spatial analysis assists theoretical understanding and empirical testing in the social sciences, and rapidly expanding applications of geographic information technologies have advanced the spatial data-gathering needed for spatial analysis and model making. This much-needed volume covers outstanding examples of spatial thinking in the social sciences, with each chapter showing some aspect of how certain social processes can be understood by analyzing their spatial context. The audience for this work is as trans-disciplinary as its authorship because it contains approaches and methodologies useful to geography, anthropology, history, political science, economics, criminology, sociology, and statistics.  more...

  • Critical Infrastructureby Alan Murray; Tony Grubesic

    Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2007; US$ 149.00

    This text brings together differing geographic perspectives in modeling and analysis in order to highlight infrastructure weaknesses or plan for their protection. International scholars, from a variety of disciplines ??? geography, regional science, planning, public policy, operations research, mathematics, computer science, engineering and transportation, offer varying perspectives on this subject. This text is an important contribution offering synthesis and new methodological approaches. The purpose of this volume is to explore the potential consequences of critical infrastructure failure, stemming from both man-made (e.g., terrorist attacks) and natural disasters (earthquakes, hurricanes, etc.). The approaches employed are wide-ranging,... more...

  • GIS and Spatial Analysis for the Social Sciencesby Robert Nash Parker; Emily K. Asencio

    Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 65.95

    This is the first book to provide sociologists, criminologists, political scientists, and other social scientists with the methodological logic and techniques for doing spatial analysis in their chosen fields of inquiry. The book contains a wealth of examples as to why these techniques are worth doing, over and above conventional statistical techniques using SPSS or other statistical packages. GIS is a methodological and conceptual approach that allows for the linking together of spatial data, or data that is based on a physical space, with non-spatial data, which can be thought of as any data that contains no direct reference to physical locations. more...

  • Non-standard Spatial Statistics and Spatial Econometricsby Daniel A. Griffith; Jean H. Paul Paelinck

    Springer 2011; US$ 129.00

    Despite spatial statistics and spatial econometrics both being recent sprouts of the general tree 'spatial analysis with measurement' - some may remember the debate after WWII about 'theory without measurement' versus 'measurement without theory' - several general themes have emerged in the pertaining literature. But exploring selected other fields of possible interest is tantalizing, and this is what the authors intend to report here, hoping that they will suscitate interest in the methodologies exposed and possible further applications of these methodologies. The authors hope that reactions about their publication will ensue, and they would be grateful to reader(s) motivated by some of the research efforts exposed... more...
