I am pleased to announce the publication of a new book entitled Spatial Mathematics: Theory and Practice through Mapping
http://www.crcpress.com/product/isbn/9781466505322
Authors: Sandra Arlinghaus and Joseph Kerski
In my view this book represents the interweaving of Geography, GIS, and Mathematics.

Spatial mathematics and analysis, two different approaches to scholarship, yield different results and employ different tools. This book explores both approaches to looking at real world issues that have mathematics as a critical, but often unseen, component. Readers learn the mathematics required to consider the broad problem at hand, rather than learning mathematics according to the determination of a (perhaps) artificial curriculum. This format motivates readers to explore diverse realms in the worlds for geography and mathematics and in their interfaces.
