Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book is produced to the high standard associated with Advances and thoughfully illustrated, including 18 colour plates.. To the non-specialist, all this information (about GIS) can be a little bewildering to assemble and digest but this book provides a good tour through it... A better forum between biological and physical scientists is a good thing. This seminal book goes some way to bridging the n divide."

3.0 out of 5 stars The Apt Topic for the Millenium, December 17, 2002
By Dr. K.Srinivasan (IIITM-K, Trivandrum, India) - See all my reviews
The topic of the book itself is a current and very much of State of the Art Technology. Geographical Epidemiology is a century old but the GIS applications makes the field more reacheable to the masses. It also focuses on the appropriate use of IT in the subject. This will be an asset to the Health planners and epidemiologists for better planning.
