Introduction to Geographic Information Systems, 8th edition is designed to provide students in a first or second GIS course with a solid foundation in both GIS concepts and the use of GIS. Introduction to GIS strikes a careful balance between GIS concepts and hands-on applications. The main portion of the chapter presents GIS terms and concepts and helps students learn how each one fits into a complete GIS system. At the end of each chapter, an application section with 2-7 tasks presents students with actual GIS exercises and the necessary data to solve the problem.

Worth it as a textbook rental, not worth it as a purchase. There are many GIS learning resources out there for free. My professor only used this book for the datasets and exercises, we used Esri resources for actually learning how to use GIS software. Apparently there are errors in the book, but my professor steered us away from the bad parts LOL

I just needed it for a GIS class.
If you don't know anything about computer lingo, this book is not for you. But, if you're a computer geek (which is awesome) this is great.

Pictures are in BLACK AND WHITE. In a GIS book showing how to observe different land imagery, it is nearly impossible to distinguish between shades of grey!!!!!

The information all appeared to be accurate and mostly up-to-date. However, the chapters are exceedingly wordy. The author likes to "circle" around the subject(s) but rarely addresses a problem directly. This is not the book for you if you are looking for a book that is linear (e.g. 1 + 1 = 2). the best example I had with this book was searching for an explanation and description of an equation, yet the book never gave a precise explanation. It clearly liked to inject extra words to fill up space - or possibly convolute the understanding of the subject. At times , it felt like I was reading papers by students trying to hide the fact they did not fully understand the subject. I would be cautious about using this book.
