"Cluster Analysis for Researchers" I started using Dr. Romesburg's book, Cluster Analysis for Researchers early in my academic career. I am now on my third copy of the book because I keep lending my copy to others and forget to whom I gave the book. It is the best book on the subject of cluster analysis, which I use frequently in my ecological and satellite remote sensing areas of research. I teach this powerful methodology to my students in my field techniques course, and show students how cluster analysis is used to group spectral values derived from satellite remote sensing instruments orbiting the earth. The price of this book is amazingly low. I am just glad that there is still a place where I can purchase this book. Anyone who uses cluster analysis, or who might use cluster analysis should not be without this book.
