Customer Reviews

An excellent reference for EEs

I really like this book. It covers the subject in both depth and breadth. Answers to selected problems are included along with many useful examples. A must have reference.

Don't know why it's getting all these negative reviews...

...maybe I'm just dumb. This was the textbook for a senior/ first-year grad student EE probability course. I found it well-organized and well-written, with plenty of examples designed to illustrate and reinforce important concepts. I cannot answer as to its mathematical rigor, not being a mathematician, but as an engineer I found the derivations thorough (i.e., not a lot of skipped steps or hand waving). Yes, the homework problems at the end of the chapters were harder than the examples: aren't they supposed to be? And yes, not many answers were given in the back of the book, but the nature of the material is such that having the answer doesn't really help you. For worked problems, I highly recommend the Schaum's Outline (which saved my bacon on a number of homework problems). I did very well in that course, and feel that reading this book gave me a firm grasp of the material.

Excellent as textbook

Excellent choice for any beginner in the field of random signals. Can be used as textbook for a graduate level course. A strong knowledge of calculus is needed.

Excellent Purchase!

I recieved a book in excellent condition. I would definately purchase from this company in the future and recommend that you do the same.

This book is very helpful as a reference.

This text was used for the introductory probablities class at the University of Maryland (enee324). The book introduced material with adequate explanation, and the tables of random variable properties are useful as a reference. The treatment of Gaussian and Poisson random variables was poor, however. Also, the book had an erroneous equation for determining marginal probability density functions.
