Introduction to Spatial Econometrics

摘要

Since the seminal and influential book of Anselin (1988) there has not been a comprehensive treatment of spatial econometric models. Without any doubt, the book by LeSage and Pace is a welcome addition to the spatial econometrics literature and will surely be a compulsory reference in this field. Although some good books on spatial statistics have come up in recent years, none of them is as specific as this one. An interesting but much shorter contribution by the same authors appeared in the updated Handbook of Spatial Statistics, an interesting reference edited by Gelfand et al. (2010).
