Review
“Timely. Comprehensive. Interesting. Readable. Beneficial as a textbook and/or reference. Relevant. Highly recommended, it is this reviewer’s opinion that this ebook is useful as a reference and textbook. It could easily serve the purpose as a primer for an undergraduate biomedical engineering elective course, followed by, if possible, an objective in database development. The text is highly pertinent to engineers working in medicine, and is therefore highly recommended.” — Paul. H. King, Ph.D., P.E, Vanderbilt University, IEEE Pulse
