This beautiful book can be read as a novel presenting carefully our quest to get more and more information from our observations and measurements. Its authors are particularly good at relating it. --Pierre C. Sabatier
This is a unique text - a labor of love pulling together for the first time the remarkably large array of mathematical and statistical techniques used for analysis of resolution in many systems of importance today optical, acoustical, radar, etc&. I believe it will find widespread use and value. --Dr. Robert G.W. Brown, Chief Executive Officer, American Institute of Physics
The mix of physics and mathematics is a unique feature of this book which can be basic not only for PhD students but also for researchers in the area of computational imaging. --Mario Bertero, Professor, University of Geneva
a tour-de-force covering aspects of history, mathematical theory and practical applications. The authors provide a penetrating insight into the often confused topic of resolution and in doing offer a unifying approach to the subject that is applicable not only to traditional optical systems but also modern day, computer-based systems such as radar and RF communications. --Prof. Ian Proudler, Loughborough University
a must have for anyone interested in imaging and the spatial resolution of images. This book provides detailed and very readable account of resolution in imaging and organizes the recent history of the subject in excellent fashion.& I strongly recommend it. --Michael A.
