From the reviews of the first edition. "... the author is a giant
in the field. One expects an exciting book and one is not
disappointed."
S. Webb, Physics in Medicine and Biology, v. 26. p. 721, 1981. "...
the book is an excellent introduction to the subject and is well
written, thoughtfully organized, and a pleasure to read."
M.W. Vannier, The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, v. 23, p. 369, 1982.
"On the one hand the book is well suited for a course on
computerized tomography at the graduate level, on the other hand I
found it a well balanced review on the subject for somebody outside
the field."
W.N Brouw, Space Science Reviews, v.32. p. 467, 1982. "This book
will be valuable to the engineer, the physicist, the mathematician,
and the physician (with a sufficient mathematical background)
interested in the field of CT."
M.M. Ter-Pogossian, Medical Physics, v. 11, p. 90, 1984.
