CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 2 reviews)
a great overview for beginners When MRI books first came out they were written by very knowledgeable people who could not speak in laymen's terms. This book is very important because you can understand it with out needing a masters degree. If your a technologist who wants to advance the right way, start here. September 28, 2004
