Review title: poorly organized, poorly edited
Product review: The text certainly has very comprehensive coverage of signal analysis for an introductory course, it certainly lacks the depth needed for an advanced course. And unfortunately the writing is so poor and the typos so numerous that the book cannot help but confuse and discourage those first learning a pretty complex field such as signal analysis. There were several mistakes in the Fourier and Laplace transform tables in the rear of the book which is simply abominable. The emphasis on computer examples and solutions is a nice feature and is implemented better than most other comparable texts. But I don't think that it's enough to redeem the numerous other flaws of this text. If I was to recommend an introductory text, a good one would be DSP First by McClellan which has lots of good computer examples and some nice exercises with real signals such as images and voice. A nice intermediate text is Digital Signal Processing by Proakis.
