I used the text in an introductory social geography class. I just got the student evaluations and they are the highest I have had for the course. A lot of credit has to go to the book. Overall satisfaction with the text was high. The price is also right. In sum, it is a good book, well received, and I will use it again next semester. --Bill Dakan, University of LouisvilleSpatial Behavior is a valuable and useful source book and a 'must' for active researchers, teachers, practitioners, and policy makers. This thick volume combines a very comprehensive review of past scholarship with important new research on a host of theoretical, methodological, and applied topics, from perception, to consumer behavior, to gendering and the elderly. Especially helpful is the attention given to policy perspectives and to computer applications.  Remarkably, the book is also eminently readable. Golledge and Stimson have made an enduring contribution. --Julian Wolpert, Ph.D., Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton UniversityFrom globalization to cognitive maps, Spatial Behavior presents a comprehensive survey of the field. Golledge and Stimson begin the book by demanding that students think reflexively about how we create knowledge, and toward the end, in an innovative chapter on geography and 'the other,' they invite students to think critically about power relationships in our society. Thorough and up-to-date. --Susan Hanson, Ph.D., Clark University The well-designed volume is amply illustrated with close to 70 tables and 150 figures... Spatial Behavior offers real depth and breadth of content.  A particular strength is the completeness of presentation of the themes addressed in each chapter....The authors integrate concepts, research design and data collection, methodology, results, and interpretations of empirical studies in their treatment of each theme.  This approach gives readers--students and scholars--a valuable model of inquiry.  Very reasonably priced, this book is a worthwhile text for anyone interested in human geography. --E. Cromley, Environment and Planning A-The text is one I would recommend strongly to all those interested in spatial behavior from both a quantitative and nonquantitative background....Its breadth is quite remarkable....I would recommend its use to anyone interested in human geography and it would make a wonderful text from which to teach a course on behavioral geography at any level. At approximately 5 cents a page (paperback), this is a real bargain!--Journal of Regional Science, 12/29/1996ƒƒA clear and accessible writing style, accompanied by a powerful look at the contributions geographers can make to real-world situations.  In addition, the book provides a useful reminder to all those who thought that behavioural approaches were dead, that they have evolved and still have a central role in geographic inquiry.--Environment and Planning, 12/29/1996
