GIS and Spatial Analysis for the Social Sciences - Parker, Robert Nash (University of California, Riverside, USA) a Asencio, Emily K. (University of California, Riverside, USA)

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. This book offers sociologists, criminologists, and other social scientists with the methodological logic and techniques for doing spatial analysis in their chosen fields of inquiry.
