5.0 out of 5 stars First Edition was Very Good, March 14, 2001

This review is from: Introduction to Applied Statistical Signal Analysis, Second Edition (Biomedical Engineering) (Hardcover)

This is about the 1st edition (1994 I think). This book is very well written and very practical in nature. If you need to apply signal analysis (time or frequency domain), without getting bogged down in theory, this will be a very good guide. It is a great introduction to the subject - from which you can then get into the more theoretical texts.
