The book reads like a story....I am sure this will serve as a great read for young engineers -- very well done!!!!

I wish there were more books written on signal processing with computer science students in mind. Only one I found was Jonathan Y Stein.

the green-tea-press book called 'think dsp', available here: http://greenteapress.com/thinkdsp/thinkdsp.pdf is also pretty good introduction on the topic. but, as others have remarked, nothing beats oppenheim's seminal text 'Discrete-Time Signal Processing'

One other book that is worth checking out: http://www.sp4comm.org/

The book also has an accompanying active MOOC on Coursera platform.

Off topic: If anyone is interested in SP and is looking for a side gig doing just that with an evolving technology, please pm me.

I recommend Prandoni & Vetterli's coursera class on Signal processing[1]. They have really made an effort to teach this in an intuitive manner instead of just throwing equations at you. This was the course where I finally really understood Fourier transforms in a visual way.

The other course I recommend is the Audio Signal processing class by Xavier Serra[2] This is a practical class with lots of hands on programming examples and introduction to useful open-source software tools.
