Geographic Information Science and Technology in Higher
Education edited by David J. Unwin, Kenneth E. Foote,
Nicholas J. Tate, and David DiBiase, to any academics and students
in GIS&T and related disciplines, industry trainers in the use
of GIS&T, faculty in other fields, public policy makers
interested in learning more about the subject matter, and members
of general public seeking a complete guide to teaching and learning
leading edge principles and technologies in GIS&T. This book is
unique and a source of discussion for the future of education in
general, and GIS&T pedagogy in particular."
