Wavelet Analysis The Scalable Structure of Information / by Howard L. Resnikoff, Raymond O.Jr. Wells.

The authors have been beguiled and entranced by mathematics all of their lives, and both believe it is the highest expression of pure thought and an essential component-one might say the quintessence-of nature. How else can one ex­ plain the remarkable effectiveness of mathematics in describing and...
