520    "Essentials of Geographic Information Systems integrates 
       key concepts behind the technology with practical concerns
       and real-world applications. Recognizing that many 
       potential GIS users are nonspecialists or may only need a 
       few maps, this book is designed to be accessible, 
       pragmatic, and concise. Essentials of Geographic 
       Information Systems also illustrates how GIS is used to 
       ask questions, inform choices, and guide policy. From the 
       melting of the polar ice caps to privacy issues associated
       with mapping, this book provides a gentle, yet substantive,
       introduction to the use and application of digital maps, 
       mapping, and GIS."--Open Textbook Library website.
