Industry Reviews

`Ideal for an implementor to read in conjunction with the standards document, in which the code is not accompanied by comments...quite suitable for a text in video compression.
IEEE Spectrum, September 1997
`If you had a long airplane trip and wanted to learn about MPEG video, this book should be in your carry-on luggage. The book authors are experts in standardization efforts...the book itself is very well done.'
Journal of Electronic Imaging, April 1997
