It should be stated on the outset: this is an excellent textbook recommended for
all geographers, students and teachers alike. The book excels in many aspects: its
content is rich and well balanced, its clarity is superb, and it is replete with examples
and exercises. The book is user-friendly to students who are interested in understanding the application of statistical tests and in properly interpreting the results, rather than in delving in the mathematics involved.
