Book Description

013496456X 978-0134964560 February 20, 1998 4

A market leader in previous editions, this book continues to offer a complete survey of continuous and discrete linear systems. It utilizes a systems approach to solving practical engineering problems, rather than using the framework of traditional circuit theory. Numerous examples from circuit theory appear throughout, however, to illustrate the various systems techniques introduced. The Fourth Edition has been thoroughly updated to effectively integrate the use of computers and to accurately reflect the latest theoretical advances.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but limited number of example problems, May 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Signals and Systems: Continuous and Discrete (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
Text is somewhat difficult to read compared to similar titles. Author frequently only solves problems with a "twist" then only offers a limited number of problems at the end of the chapter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes You Love Communication, September 28, 2001
This review is from: Signals and Systems: Continuous and Discrete (4th Edition) (Hardcover)
I was really surprised by some of the negative comments written on this book, and that is why I decided to write this comment. This book was the one assigned to the undergraduate course I took entitled Signals and Systems. In fact, this book made me like communications and signal processing, and I believe that it motivated me a lot (beside the other book by Ziemer & Tranter entitled Principles of Communication Systems: Modulation, Noise, Systems, 4th edition) to go for the graduate studies in communications and signal processing. What I liked about the two books was that they assume NO prior knowledge of the topics covered and they move on smoothly from one subject to another so that the student will have a better understanding of the "big picture" as he/she moves on. Well, I guess that the other "negative" comments about this book were written by students who expected to understand the topics covered in this book from one skim read. Let me say that that is NOT the case here. In order to understand the topics covered very well, you should read them more than once and try to solve as many problems as possible. But trust me on this: once you do so, you will grasp the material very well and will have a "feel" of what is going on.
