Abstract

This book contains a variety of applications of graph theory to geography. The power of the internet and related technology is employed to visualize otherwise-difficult mathematical ideas and make them come to life for the reader on the screen. Quotations from elsewhere: Business Wire--"This educational text surpasses eBooks currently on the market by providing a new realm of interactive content." Wiley flyer: "This revolutionary volume allows mathematicians and geographers to view graph theory in a new and vibrant way. Theories and definitions are accompanied by complementary chapters that explain the mathematics behind the examples and provide quick reference options. Using brilliant, four-color graphics, this comprehensive treatement in e-book format allows for uncommon flexibility and ease of use. The electronic format takes full advantage of online tools such as animation and Java(TM) applets to allow readers to follow processes as they happen, while hyperlinks allow readers to move easily through the text for quick reference to theorems or definitions.
