Abstract: This new and enlarged edition contains extra material on a number of topics, including geography and computers, transformation and combination of date, cluster sampling, the use of surrogates and linear programming. As in the first edition the authors attempt to give an insight into some of the techniques and underlying concepts of numerical analysis which form such an integral part of modern geography. Worked examples and exercises for the student are included throughout the text. The examples are taken from both physical and human geography.
