The Illustrated Wavelet Transform Handbook
Editorial Reviews
Review
. . . nicely organized and thoroughly pedagogical handbook . . . The book is very much 'figure driven' and they are extremely useful for illustrating the mathematics and conveying the concepts in an uncomplicated matter . . . an eminently readable style in motivating and explaining wavelets throughout the course. . . this book, written as it is in a simple, forthright and stimulating manner with balanced blend will prove a worthy addition to the understanding of wavelet transforms across disciplines.

The book is expected to provide the reader with an overview of theory and practical applications of wavelet transforms methods, a new time-frequency decomposition tool for data analysis ... The book can be recommended to the people interested above all in applications in science, engineering, medicine, finance or elsewhere. An account of the theory of continuous and descrete wavelet transforms, with a large number of examples of their use across a wide range of disciplines, is convenient both for newcomers to the subject ad readers already acquainted with wavelets methods working in particular area of application.

The book works on two levels: it is an excellent introduction for readers new to wavelet transforms, and it is a useful source of information and some inspiration to anyone who has been working in the field for some time....The book presents the field in an authoritative way but not too deely. It has been designed as an overview and introduction to this dynamic area of computational analysis, and it achieves this with complete success. To conclude, I found this a thought provoking book on a fascinating subject: in fact once into the text I found it hard to put down

The book is extremely well put together and lavishly illustrated (as one might infer from the title). Despite this fact, it is very competitively priced, and represents excellent value. To end where I began, I largely enjoyed reading this book and I strongly recommend it to anyone with an interest in wavelets, or in the general field of signal processing for that matter.

Guess what! Illustrations really do help in undersatnding wavelet transforms. It might be taken for granted that illustrations can aid in the understanding of a subject matter as this, but there is sound logical reasoning behind this claim that makes it especially true for this particular subject matter and also a great motivation for the text. This handbook goes the distance and shows that wavelet transforms are powerful data analysis tools that readily lend themselves to intuitive visual analysis and graphical representation, both of which can be critical to correct analysis in practice.
