Biography
Bernd Jahne
"…covers a significant number of standard methods. … The selection of topics would fit a one-semester graduate-level course in image processing for science and engineering majors. … The book is clearly written … The photographs, diagrams, and formulas are well done. … Summing Up: Recommended."
-CHOICE, Vol. 42, No. 2, Oct. 2004
"The book … uses images, graphics and charts effectively … [It] is well-organized and useful for a variety of scientists from electrical engineers to biologists and other physical sciences."
-E-Streams, Vol. 7, No. 12, December 2004
