- fn-mote 2mo agoThank you so much for the review link!! No ordinary reader would expect a complete rewrite from the first to the second edition.
- geokon 2mo agoOh wow! That review was incredibly useful. I had seen there was a second edition and was eager to buy it next I came to the US - but was hesitating on dropping so much money on it. Looks like it may be a useful read after I've mastered the first edition more :) The FFT and SVD chapters have actually ended up being the basis of a few research projects I've done. The writing really has a way of reframing concepts in very insightful ways.
