Reviews

An excellent introductory textbook...with as complete a coverage of relevant topics as can be wished for... --Journal of Controlled Release 75 (2001) Course organizers will find the book particularly useful, as numerous examples and exercises are included to help students consolidate their new-found knowledge. The text is adequately supported by line drawings, and each chapter is followed by a list of suggestions for further reading. Overall, the authors have succeeded in their task and are to be congratulated on the production of what is sure to become a popular text book. --PHYSIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENT, May 2000 ...finally, an introductory textbook that is both broad and deep, and more importantly, useable. I intend to use this book in the introductory biomedical engineering course that I teach. --Al Wald, Columbia University, in the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology, Nov/Dec 1999
