Spatial Processes First edition

"This 'new' book by Cliff and Ord is a revised version of their earlier book (1973) Spatial Autocorrelation. However, about two-thirds of their latest effort contains new material synthesizing research completed by the authors since their 1973 book. The consideration of problems associated with the testing of hypotheses has been retained. In addition, much of the new material delves into the problems of estimation and identification for models of spatial processes. The shift in emphasis from mere theoretical considerations to practical appli-cations has made Spatial Processes a far more useful and appealing text to advanced students of spatial analysis.
