This book covers the basics of processing and spectral analysis of monovariate discrete‎-time signals‎.‎ The approach is practical‎,‎ the aim being to acquaint the reader with the indications for and drawbacks of the various methods and to highlight possible misuses‎.‎ The book is rich in original ideas‎,‎ visualized in new and illuminating ways‎,‎ and is structured so that parts can be skipped without loss of continuity‎.‎ Many examples are included‎,‎ based on synthetic data and real measurements from the fields of physics‎,‎ biology‎,‎ medicine‎,‎ macroeconomics etc‎.‎‎,‎ and a complete set of MATLAB exercises requiring no previous experience of programming is provided‎.‎ Prior advanced mathematical skills are not needed in order to understand the contents‎:‎ a good command of basic mathematical analysis is sufficient‎.‎ Where more advanced mathematical tools are necessary‎,‎ they are included in an Appendix and presented in an easy‎-to‎-follow way‎.‎ With this book‎,‎ digital signal processing leaves the domain of engineering to address the needs of scientists and scholars in traditionally less quantitative disciplines‎,‎ now facing increasing amounts of data‎.‎
