The book does a nice job of covering a lot of the key areas and outstanding problems in the area of geographic data mining. Although it does have some coverage of temporal problems related to the field, it would benefit from more coverage of this up and comming research area. Overall a great way to quickly get familliar with the research in this area.

I think it's the lone book which speaks in a such level of details of data mining applied to geographic problems in a sort of overview of all of them.
The most interesting chapters are for me in the part 3 of the book more focus of classical data mining algorithms but in integrating a geographic (x/y) component.
Even if the book lakes a little bit of concistency because it's a sum of articles of different autors this book should be in your own library if you do data mining, geomarketng or both.
