Practical Handbook on Image Processing for Scientific Applications

Rating:
Summary: Excellent
Review: This book is exellent. The material and the way it's covered is contemporary, far beyond the basics, and otherwise hard-to-find. The synopsis of the treated problems is precise and descriptive and the notation is especially clear. The book contains plenty of excellent illustrations and specific numerical data (such as filters tables). The problem treatment builds successfully on the previously covered material and analogies from other disciplines. The book doesn't leave 'gaps' in explanations and doesn't suffer from verbosity, as many theoretical texts tend to. There are good pointers for further details and research provided in the summary of each chapter, bibliography and color. The author gives many excellent tips.
