4.0 out of 5 stars Good Introduction
This book is just an introductory text to image compression. The algorithms are not illustrated in a detailed fashion, but they provide the reader with a good overview. The MPEG section is well developed and the few pages dealing with wavelets give you an idea of the way the subject should be approached.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for a basic overview
This book provides only a basic overview of video compression techniques--I wish its title said something to that effect. However, this book does a pretty good job at covering the basics. It is a very easy read. I would suggest reading this to get a general overview of the topics, and then read a text that covers video compression more in-depth.
