Introduction to Biomedical Engineering Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've used this book now in 2 classes (including one taught by an author of one of the chapters) and have both times found the book hard to use. It is full of so many small errors you can never be sure whether the problems you are having are because you don't understand the material, or if there is another mistake in that section. Very frustrating. The problems are not limited to explicit errors either, there are issues with the presentation that makes me think it was poorly edited as well. Style, order, and omission of important points are among the sins. Some sections are pretty good, though.
The book is a good value for a textbook, however (it's huge!), and provides lots of useful information on a wide variety of BME-related topics. Just make sure you have someone to help you spot the mistakes.

This is a comprehensive survey of the multi-disciplinary field of biomedical engineering. The book is intended to be the introductory textbook for the first course at the undergraduate junior level and as the introductory textbook in graduate programs in biomedical engineering programs. The book is also intended to be utilized as a professional reference book for engineers and biomedical researchers requiring a knowledge of the basic fundamentals and the latest advances in biomedical engineering. This text/reference will have worked examples throughout the text as well as end-of-chapter homework and self-study problems. In addition to the pedagogy within the book, the authors will maintain a website of relevant laboratory simulations and links to other biomedical engineering web sites. * Well illustrated throughout text* Appropriate for course use by engineering students as well as biological science students* An outstanding introductory reference work for engineers and scientists in the industry* An essential tool on practicing biomedical engineers' bookshelves* Professional, public, and research libraries will find this book a welcome addition to their libraries* MATLAB and SIMULINK software is used throughout the book to model and simulate dynamic systems* Frequent use of example problems within each chapter including thorough explanation of the techniques used to solve them* Numerous self-study/homework problems at the end of each chapter, ranging from simple to difficult
