ASLIB Book Guide
"An excellent introduction to the design of analogue and digital measurement systems. Ideally suited to support undergraduate product design courses as well as a useful reference for all engineers."
Measurement and Control
"The book is well presented, with clear text, informative diagrams and a short bibliography at the of each chapter ... contains much that will be of interest and use to the measurement engineer."
COntemporary
"... an excellent addition to my bookshelf ... since .. it is a practitioner's reference book ... also appropriate for both undergraduate and postgraduate students ... to support their projects or research ... A number of worked examples ... makes the book practical and designer-oriented." (Contemporary Physics) "... a comprehensive treatment of the considerations the experimentalist must make in designing, building, and evaluating electronic measurement systems ... The ease of learning and understanding the material is enhanced by numerous worked-example problems that provide a practical application of difficult-to-understand concepts ... a valuable reference book or handbook for scientists and engineers involved with the electronic collection and manipulation of data.
