The only book on this important subject in print
This book showed me how vector space methods are a natural way to use the computer for solving difficult problems in engineering design. Although my background in mathematics consists only of advanced calculus and linear algebra, I had no trouble following the theory and learning the applications. For electrical engineers, such as myself, the applications to digital filter design were particularly interesting. There are many other applications described, including the design of lenses, image processing, even neural nets. What I like is that the authors give the backgroud to each application so that even if you are unfamiliar with the field, there are clear and concise introductions that help your understanding of the problem. For example, in the digital filter design section, the authors explain why digital filters are important and how they relate to analog filters. To write a book like this takes not only broad knowledge but extraordinary expository skills.
