Summary: Very good book for practice in C and image processing
Review: This book is different from other books in image processing, since it also handles speech processing and gives much information on programming in C++. The authors provide free source codes with this book on a ftp-site.

The first introduction is about software development and ways to work with more people on one source code. It gives much information on programming. Then information is given on the difference between C and C++. I liked this overview very much, since I am used to program in C and not in C++.

An overview is given of the different kind of image processing operations in a compact way. Some information is given on statistical and neural pattern recogniton.

This book is a good learning book, whereas it can also be used as a reference source. The contents of the book is organized in a proper way, so it is not difficult to find the right information.
