Trees (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1980): J. Stilwell Trees (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1980)
J. Stilwell; Jean-Pierre Serre
R1,386 Discovery Miles 13 860 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

From the reviews:

"Serre's notes on groups acting on trees have appeared in various forms (all in French) over the past ten years and they have had a profound influence on the development of many areas, for example, the theory of ends of discrete groups. This fine translation is very welcome and I strongly recommend it as an introduction to an important subject. In Chapter I, which is self-contained, the pace is fairly gentle. The author proves the fundamental theorem for the special cases of free groups and tree products before dealing with the (rather difficult) proof of the general case." (A.W. Mason in Proceedings of the Edinburgh Mathematical Society 1982)

Applied GIS and Spatial Analysis (Hardcover, New and >): J. Stilwell Applied GIS and Spatial Analysis (Hardcover, New and >)
J. Stilwell
R4,623 Discovery Miles 46 230 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The popularity of geography as an academic discipline is partly explained by its relevance to the real world. Spatial analysis uses geographic information and statistical methods for the study of specific applications, ranging from business location analysis to the measurement of inner city deprivation, and when used in conjunction with GIS, visual representations and "what if" scenarios can be created. An increasing number of public and private sector organisations now regard spatial analysis as a valuable problem-solving tool.

Applied GIS and Spatial Analysis focuses on the use of quantitative methods and GIS in applied contexts, demonstrating the wide range of techniques that are used to deal with problems at different spatial scales. It provides readers with a range of global applications from local/national government and business, and is structured to convey the public-private focus of the material.

Arranged in four main parts, Applied GIS and Spatial Analysis covers:

  • Geobusiness, which considers applications in the private sector.
  • Social Deprivation, a set of chapters commissioned by various local authorities helping to expose different aspects of social problems, especially deprivation and crime.
  • Transport and Location, relating to transport networks and location problems.
  • National Spatial Planning, which looks at large-scale national social and economic problems, largely funded by government departments.

This book is unique as it concentrates on commercially-sponsored applications of GIS and quantitative geography research methodologies that are undertaken by professional quantitative geographers. Internationally renowned editors and contributors from academic and business consultancies present spatial analysis techniques and the actual process of problem solving, to illustrate the applied nature of contemporary quantitative geography. A wealth of case studies enriches the chapters and exemplifies the practical application of GIS, statistical models, location-allocation models, and networks of flow models.

Applied Spatial Modelling and GIS is essential reading for postgraduates and researchers of Quantitative Geography, GIS, Spatial Modelling and Retail Geography. It is also highly recommended for upper-level undergraduate and MSc students taking modules in GIS and Quantitative Geography, and will be a valuable source of reference for practitioners involved in the use of GIS for private and public sector planning.

 

Composing for the Screen in Germany and the USSR - Cultural Politics and Propaganda (Paperback): Phil Powrie, Robynn J. Stilwell Composing for the Screen in Germany and the USSR - Cultural Politics and Propaganda (Paperback)
Phil Powrie, Robynn J. Stilwell
R627 Discovery Miles 6 270 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Despite the long history of music in film, its serious academic study isstill a relatively recent development and therefore comprises a limited body ofwork. The contributors to this book, drawn from both film studies and musicology, attempt to rectify this oversight by investigating film music from the vibrant, productive, politically charged period before World War II. They apply a variety ofmethodologies -- including archival work, close readings, political histories, andstyle comparison -- to this under explored field.
