The Geospatial Desktop is a book about open source GIS (OSGIS) software. It is a book for all levels of experience, from beginner to advanced.

The book includes a survey of OSGIS desktop applications which provides a quick introduction to the many packages available. Both GUI (Graphical User Interface) and command line are introduced with examples.

The Author (Gary Sherman) is also 'the father of QGIS"...

Seems we should order (a few) copies, and maybe see if it is useful for our students also.
