Die räumliche Epidemiologie untersucht die statistischen Aspekte der Ausbreitung von Krankheiten nicht nur im zeitlichen, sondern auch im geographischen Rahmen - ein schnell wachsendes Gebiet der modernen medizinischen Forschung! In diesem Buch werden zum einen die statistisch-methodischen Grundlagen erläutert, zum anderen aber auch zahlreiche Anwendungsbeispiele diskutiert. Die wichtigsten Verfahren wurden in Anhängen übersichtlich zusammengestellt.
