I find this book very useful for spatial methodology in which dynamics of space is analyzed very carefully. Commodity flows and human movements across spaces has a special significance in terms of gaps, overlaps and challenges towards optimization of paths and flows in a spatial network. Methods given with examples are really meaningful for addressing similar situations in a developing country and in a backward region which seeks to develop its economy. Each chapter has a organic link to the preceding one. One needs to appreciate the insight used in operating the systems and specific situations. The academic community needs to know the tools and techniques of network analysis in a closed and open system.
