2.0 out of 5 stars next please, 9 Aug 2003
By A Customer
Really don't bother. If you're learning about GIS, this will be behind you in days. There are a few good points here (eg in the chapter on implementation and management problems), but in general it's too elementary for most purposes. It's also got a strong American bias.
