Hi Guys, In case you didn't know, Wiley & Sons, in conjunction with the IEEE Press, has published a new DSP book. It's titled: "Streamlining Digital Signal Processing: A Tricks of the Trade Guidebook." It's a terrific book in terms of providing real-world, super-practical, tips & tricks regarding many different DSP topics. As it turns out, many of the book's chapters were written by some of the DSP experts here on comp.dsp. I am the book's editor and one of its "Contributors". The Wiley Marketing people asked me to post an announcement here on comp.dsp regarding the book, and they've agreed to give any of you a 20% discount on the sale price of the book. The pricing info is: Original price: $74.95 (U.S. dollars) Comp.dsp discount price is $59.96. (U.S. dollars) You can learn more about the book by visiting: http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470131578.html If you decide to buy the book, then as you go through the book-ordering web pages you'll have an opportunity to enter a "Promotion Code". If you enter the code AUT27 you'll receive a 20% discount on the price of the book. So, ... if such a DSP book interests you please have a look at the above web site to learn more about the book. Regards, [-Rick-] ----------------------- Below is Wiley & Sons's description of the book: Based on the popular "DSP Tips & Tricks" column in IEEE Signal Processing magazine, this book provides DSP tricks-of-the-trade, practical shortcuts, and clever engineering designs from experienced digital signal processing (DSP) professionals. Covering a wide array of signal processing topics, such as digital filtering, spectrum analysis, demodulation, generating specialized signals, high-speed function approximation, and various other DSP operations, this book provides elegant engineering solutions used by working engineers to reduce the cost, increase the processing speed, and improve the performance of their DSP systems. Written in a style that is both professional and lucid, the DSP topics are carefully introduced, described with just the right amount of mathematics, and thoroughly explained with clear writing and an abundance of figures. Chapter topics are written in a standalone manner, so the subject matter can be read in any desired order. The contributors to this book make up a dream team of skilled DSP engineering-authors-experienced in both building high-performance DSP systems and describing their designs in practical easy-to-understand language. While rich in specialized DSP tips and tricks making it a valuable resource for experienced working engineers, this material contains sufficient fundamental DSP theory and simple mathematics to make it accessible to students. Bridging the theory-to-practice gap, this is a very different DSP book!

Oh well. Timing is "everything", isn't it? As for the book's value, if you run across a topic (some DSP description) in the book that saves you merely 1-2 hours at work, then the book has more than payed for itself (from the standpoint of your employer). The book's text is written in the most "readable" way that was possible. I think you'll like it. Good Luck Jim, [-Rick-]

The "Understanding DSP" book is from another publisher (Prentice Hall). Sorry 'bout that. Regards, [-Rick-]
