A clear, comprehensive presentation of both the theory and applications in signals, systems, and transforms, this book presents the mathematical background of signals and systems in relation to practical theory. Well-written and well-organized, it contains many examples and problems for reinforcement of the concepts presented. This book presents the mathematical background of signals and systems, including the Fourier transform, the Fourier series, the Laplace transform, the discrete-time and the discrete Fourier transforms, and the z-transform. For electrical and computer engineers.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Terrible, terrible book,
By "idreamofjeani" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Signals, Systems, and Transforms (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
This is a very poor book. It is filled with errors, and the presentation is extremely incoherent (not clear at all, despite the editorial claims). Entire paragraphs of thought were left out. The order of the text is crazy. The pictures are not very good. The presentation is not qualitative. My classmates do not understand the material conceptually from the book, and we have one of the authors as our teacher. I wish I could say this book is going to get better in future editions, but it is fundamentally flawed. It would need to be completely rewritten by different authors.STAY away from this text, even if your school requires it. You will NOT learn the material from this book. If you are a school official, PLEASE do not use this text for your school! GET BOTH OF THESE instead. They are the best: -- Linear Signals and Systems by B.P. Lathi -- Transforms in Signals and Systems by Peter Kraniauskas

1.0 out of 5 stars
Required reading in HELL.,
By JohnnyEgo (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Signals, Systems, and Transforms (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
This book is evil. I mean evil in the Biblical sense. Think Dante's Inferno and the innermost circle of hell. Actually, being frozen in a lake or forced to eat excrement seem rather pleasant compared to the twisted, nonsensical passages in this book. Perhaps I would have liked the book better if it had been written in Farsi. I don't understand Farsi either, but at least then it would have had an excuse.The book is poorly worded. Examples are not fully worked, and make critical assumptions between steps that are neither documented nor explained. The homework problems bare as much semblance to the text as I bare to Tommy Lee or a large piece of office furniture. Sections of the book are not in chronological order, meaning that critical information for understanding a section is often several more sections ahead. If you have to buy this text, I strongly recommend purchasing the Shaums (sp?) Outlines on Fourier Transforms, which is concisely written and has several well documented examples. I encourage you to keep this book in the bathroom as an alternate source of material should you run out of toilet paper. At least then, you may get some use out of it.

Just go light $119 on fire...,
By maxwell (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Signals, Systems, and Transforms (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
...and save yourself the grief of trying to learn anything from this book. This is the required text in one of my EE courses and I haven't found a single redeeming quality in it yet.The material is not presented in a very concise manner I typically spend a great deal of time filtering through the chapters to find the important details. Most of the time I have to go to a text from one of my other courses to find what I am looking for. The examples are few and not helpful in working the exercises at the end of the chapters. Any good text on circuit analysis which covers the Fourier and Laplace transforms and their applications would be more useful.
