Subjects covered at length include spatial regression models, weighting matrices, estimation procedures and the complications associated with their use. The work particularly focuses on models of uncertainty and estimation under various complications relating to model specifications, data problems, tests of hypotheses, along with systems and panel data extensions which are covered in exhaustive detail. Designed as a textbook and reference companion, every chapter concludes with a set of questions for formal or self--study. Throughout, direct applicatio
