Average Rating: 
Rating: - Text Material is Great
The material covered in this text is well presented including many examples. An excellent textbook for the study of signals and systems.
Unfortunately, my transaction experience was compromised by the fact that I was lured into purchase based on an erroneous discription suggesting that the book was in hard cover; it was a paperback and arrived at a time during the semister when I was forced to accept it. I HATE THIS BAIT AND SWITCH THAT OFTEN OCCURS THROUGH ONLINE BOOK PURCHASES!!!
Rating: - It's got lots of maths...
But as an undergrad with GPA 5.8 (~distinction), this book really doesn't explain to ME the maths in an engineering context. For example, Chapter 3, with Orthonormal/Orthogonal signals, had me completely left in the dark as to why, as part of my job as a microelectronic engineer, I would want to orthonormalise a bunch of signals, even though the introductory paragraph goes: "Orthogonal representations of signals are of general importance in solving many engineering problems. Two of the reasons ... Read More

Theoretically, the flow of explainations is Okay. The problem is that it contains too much material for one semester course(for an introductory couse), too much math and examples. It also lacks a CAD package such as matlab and simulink to support the book. The package becomes a must for a current textbook nowadays. More clear concepts rather than too much math examples and more practical application examples are hopeful.
Rating: - Math, Math, Math, Few Concepts
Overall this books is only okay. It emphasizes formulas and procedure way too much. Concepts are short, if concepts are explained at all. Basically, it lacks the necessary theory.
