Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this text as more of a supplement, expecting more of a handbook on the latest and greatest channel models. I was pleasantly surprised by the author's fluid style of writing and his use of precisely enough mathematics to solidify the fundamental concepts in my mind. I've never seen a book like this- pulling just enough math from each of the supporting discplines (EM, Rand Proc., and Comm Th'y) to give depth, and prose to facilitate understanding.
Most text books at this level are either mathematically rigorous (i.e. eq'n after eq'n) or are fluff (i.e. vague and diluted). This book can be read cover to cover and still be of use after the fact.
Another plus is that the author provides a lot of illustrations. These put things into context, so the reader is never lost.
Obviously, one needs to invest in more than just one book and needs journals and theses to really develop a topic, but this is a great place to start for a grad student looking to pull together concepts from his/her undergrad courses (as in my situation). I can't put it down- it just makes so many things make sense! How many technical texts can you say that about?
