Great BookJuly 12, 2000 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a very good book. The authors focus very well on the audience they are trying to commuinicate with and they have plenty of well thought out examples. The book is easy to read and has a nice selection of topics. This would make a good textbook or a nice reference. The book does lack much of the mathematical development, but that really isn't the driving force for the text. If you are interested in just the how to's and not really the why then this is a great book for you.
