Combines analysis and tools from probability, harmonic analysis, operator theory, and engineering (signal/image processing)
Interdisciplinary focus with hands-on approach, generous motivation and new pedagogical techniques
Numerous exercises reinforce fundamental concepts and hone computational skills
Separate sections explain engineering terms to mathematicians and operator theory to engineers
Fills a gap in the literature
