This 10-chapter text provides a sampling of discourses on the current state of the art in several areas of wireless medical system development and related algorithm developments. Five chapters cover topics in technologies and manufacturing, five cover areas of algorithms and data processing. Twenty-eight authors were involved in these chapters, the text is one of a series edited by K. Iniewski titled Devices, Circuits and Systems. This text is a specialty text, a familiarity with the subject matter and acronyms is necessary to fully appreciate the content of most of the material presented. Overall, this text should be a good current reference source for persons looking at potential developments involving technologically current areas of work in wireless medical device development. Each of the chapters are well-written, succinct, and well referenced. - Paul H. King, Vanderbilt University This book gives an overview of recent and proposed advancements in the field of wireless medical systems. It is an emerging and rapidly expanding field, and this book does a good job of introducing the reader to the different aspects of developing such systems, be it developing the hardware or the algorithms on which the systems are based. The book is a good mechanism for increasing exposure in the area for beginners and also interested readers. -IEEE Wireless Communications, August 2016
