His book Principles of Computerized Tomographic Imaging, now re-published as a classic in Applied Mathematics by SIAM (Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics), is widely used in courses dealing with modern medical imaging. It is one of the most frequently cited books in the literature on image reconstruction. His other co-authored book Digital Picture Processing is also considered to be a classic and has been one of the most widely referenced sources in literature dealing with digital image processing and computer vision.
His more recent books are a part of his Object Trilogy Project The first book of the trilogy, Programming with Objects: A Comparable Presentation of Object-Oriented Programming with C++ and Java, presents a comparative approach to the teaching and learning of two large object-oriented languages, C++ and Java. The second book, Scripting with Objects: A Comparative Presentation of Object-Oriented Scripting with Perl and Python, does the same with Perl and Python. The last, Designing with Objects is presumably currently in the works.

Famous quotes containing the word books:
“Mr. Alcott seems to have sat down for the winter. He has got Plato and other books to read. He is as large-featured and hospitable to traveling thoughts and thinkers as ever; but with the same Connecticut philosophy as ever, mingled with what is better. If he would only stand upright and toe the line!—though he were to put off several degrees of largeness, and put on a considerable degree of littleness. After all, I think we must call him particularly your man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
