Description and Table of Contents

Description

This volume has been written for students, researchers and practitioners in the field of human geography and planning, and describes how mathematics is used as a tool in these subjects by illustration with examples from the field. Detailed coverage is given of statistical and mathematical modelling with relation to human geography and planning. The book is divided into three parts, each of which deals with a different aspect of the subject. There is some discussion of the latest developments in dynamic modelling, which are of crucial importance to the future of geographical theory and planning methods.
