"The material is nicely presented and was a pleasure to read. I believe you have achieved your objective of making the material understandable to even those having a very modest level of mathematical sophistication, which should make this a very popular work."

"In general, I found the style of writing most refreshing. It was a pleasure to read 'how to do DSP' without having to wade through all of the derivations and statistical analysis. I believe the majority of students will feel the same. The narratives relating to techniques and pitfalls were particularly insightful. I have not seen this in a DSP text."

"Thank you for allowing me to review a portion of your manuscript. I think that the project is an excellent idea--- scientists and engineers of all disciplines need to understand practical digital signal processing concepts, and this book provides an excellent overview of the important topics. I also like the idea of emphasizing the concepts and their implementations rather than the mathematics; this will make the text appealing to a wide variety of students and professionals."

"I am very impressed with the quality of the manuscript and I endorse your general approach to presenting the material to students with a variety of backgrounds."

"Yours is an interesting approach ...", "... the style is very pleasing, and makes for an enjoyable reading. The book has rhythm and is easily followed. I must admit that occasionally I would have welcomed some further mathematics that could have enlightened your descriptions, but I understand that this was not one of your major goals. I share with you the notion that the best DSP teaching strategy is not necessarily a-la-Oppenheim, and that the development of intuition is essential in making DSP an accessible subject."

"In general, I find this book very well written and informative, and I will recommend it to my future students as a beginner-level text. Congratulations for a job well done, and thank you for giving me a chance to review it."

"This is very good, reads well and is instructive." "The figures in your book are an especially strong point; again and again I found that the figures supported and illustrated (and sometimes expanded upon) the text in a very useful way. If I were offering a DSP course in 1998, I would definitely consider your text for adoption. It a good piece of work!"
