From the book reviews:
“The book presents solid and accessible strategies and provides the policy maker with a valued support to policy development. ... All the chapters in this book are organized and well presented. Each paper begins with an introduction and concludes with a list of references. The intended audience for this book is presumably policy makers. However, researchers and graduate students who are involved with spatial modeling can also benefit from this book.” (S. E. Ahmed, Technometrics, Vol. 56 (1), January, 2014)
