I'm getting ready to order R Lyons book and Amazon is offering a deal if I
buy a second title along with it.
The second title is "Digital Signal Processing - A Practical Guide for
Engineers and Scientists" by Steven W Smith.
How is this second book? Does it compliment the Lyons book well? |

Amazon's book deals are usually based on total price, not on specific
titles unless they're part of a set.
I have both books, and I find Smith's occasionally useful. They are
aimed at approximately the same level audience, and another perspective
is always good. You can read Smith's book at http://www.dspguide.com. I
bought my copy when I got tired of reading it on line.

Thanks, Jerry. This is great. I can actually see the text! |

Jerry - this is a different book, or a different version of the online |
book. |

Don't know your second title, but are you sure about this deal? Usually
these Amazon "deals" are simply the sum of their respective prices. Lyons
book is very good though.

Yes, that is exactly the case. I should have said "recommended". Any
technical subject I've ever undertaken has been done with multiple
references. I don't expect this to be any different. I'm hoping some
folks here have the second title so they can offer pro or con
recommendations on it. |

Hi,
Smith's first book is at:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0966017633/qid%3D1022757494/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F0%5F1/102-5266423-3137720#product-details
Smith came out with a second book. You can see it
at:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/075067444X/ref=pm_dp_ln_b_1/102-5266423-3137720?v=glance&s=books
I have the first book, which I like.

Hi Bob,
I don't have a copy of the Smith book that you listed
because that's his second book.
However I have a copy of his first book which I
like a lot. I think it compliments my book
pretty darned well.
If you buy a copy of my book, please send me an
E-mail and I'll send you the errata.
Good Luck & Regards,
[-Rick-] |

Yeah, I've been eye-balling Mr Lyons book for awhile. My other coding
projects are in a good place now, so it's time to dig in! A few guitar
goodies will round it out nicely :-) |

I'm getting your book too (the second edition) so I'd be glad to have
the errata too, but you should just put it on your webpage, so anyone
could get it without having to ask you |

I know what ya' mean Michel.
But some of the corrections involve
equations (and one change to a figure)
that make them difficult to describe
in our "text" format here.
Send me an E-mail, OK?

Rick, Have you thought about putting the errata on a web page? Then you could
just post a link rather than having to individually e-mail each person (though
it is a very generous offer to be sure). Just a thought.

I think you should put something like a PDF on your site. PDF format is
doubtlessly the best thing for that type of stuff. |
