Statistical Techniques in Geographical Analysis Summary

Statistical Techniques in Geographical Analysis by Professor Gareth Shaw

This is the second edition of this undergraduate textbook. It is shorter than its predecessors, but now contains a thorough treatment of computational methods. Assuming no more than a good GCSE pass grade, the author covers the range of statistical techniques used by geographers, from simple descriptive techniques to parametric and non-parametric methods in bivariate and multivariate settings. Each technique is introduced manually, followed up by the appropriate application, using either the SPSS or MINITAB software packages - the two statistical packages most widely used by geographers.
