Review # 1 was written on 2013-04-14 00:00:00 Patricia Ziebart The author was an English major in college, which must be why the book was so easy to read. The first part of the book is primarily historical in nature, explaining how wavelets (as of 1998) came about. In this part will be boxes with some technical details. The second half of the book has chapters for each of these boxes explaining the theory in more detail.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-11-26 00:00:00 Kainoa Davis This is a fantastic book for people that are looking for a wonderfully written book about wavelets. No way I would recommend this to someone that does not have a background in the field but if one does, this is a gem. I wish there were more books like this; mathematics needs to be more accessible. And the question is, why isn't it??? This is a mathematically precise book, written by an English major. Why is there not more of this? Congrats to the author and thank you for such a work. I wish you could do this for more advanced concepts.
