New Spatial Mathematics Book Published

Esri Education Manager Joseph Kerski has co-authored a new book titled Spatial Mathematics: Theory and Practice through Mapping. Spatial mathematics and analysis, two different approaches to scholarship, yield different results and employ different tools. This book explores both approaches to looking at real world issues that have mathematics as a critical, but often unseen, component. Readers learn the mathematics required to consider the broad problem at hand, rather than learning mathematics according to the determination of a (perhaps) artificial curriculum. This format motivates readers to explore diverse realms in the worlds for geography and mathematics in their interfaces.

A video description of the book is available here:
