GIS Concepts and ArcView Methods
Description: GIS Concepts and ArcView Methods bridges the gap between user manuals and textbooks by fusing ArcView v3 methods and techniques with a compilation of basic geographical concepts to benefit both beginners and experts. This book is full of practical advice demonstrating techniques to maximize the use of ArcView, while providing the context for why a particular method or algorithm should be selected over another. Learn why you should choose the certain method or technique in addition to how to use it. You will move beyond knowing simply the basics of ArcView to understanding the context behind them. You will become a producer of information rather than a simply a user of GIS. Technically in depth and easy to read, the book is organized by concepts from basic to advanced, making the ideas and procedures easier to comprehend. Numerous examples, step-by-step instructions, answers to frequently-asked questions, and references to primary GIS and computer science literature can help you learn even more. GIS Concepts and ArcGIS Methods is a complete, cohesive reference designed to increase productivity for students, as well as for professional GIS users.

Best book on ArcView This is the best book I’ve seen on ArcView, and I looked hard. Most other books are very bloated books which concentrate on step by step instructions but don’t give you the broad view of what a GIS is and why and how to use it. This book successfully integrates GIS theory and motivation and strategy with how to do it in ArcView. Information is effectively and concisely presented and you get lots of depth. This book assumes you have no GIS information but leads you to some quite sophisticated usage (e.g. scripts and programming). It also presents lots of nice nice items that aren’t evident in the documentation, and neat tricks (e.g. how to make an ArcView project portable so that it can run on more than one computer without all the file links being broken).If you have never used a computer and are uncomfortable with menus, etc., you might want to get one of the more introductory books. (But then, you are unlikely to be reading this review if that is who you are)…
