So, the motivation to study the problems in this field are obvious and unlike some specialty areas, the demand by consumers is driving the need for increasingly better systems with faster data transmission/reception.
Now about the book ....
The book is a compendium of contributions from primarily academics that are actively studying the problem of how to solve some of the current problems in Network Coding. The list is long and impressive starting with the editors of the book. The authors made a very wise choice and used the initial articles to help provide the foundation that answers the question "What is network coding?". The author of this chapter claims that the math is not advanced and easily understandable by both academics and working professionals. I would say this is an accurate statement, but I will caution the reader that matrix algebra, basic probabilities, and a certain amount of calculus are a must to begin to understand the material. For those well-acquainted with system theory will have no problem with the level of math required to understand the introductory chapters.
The subsequent contributions address more specialized problems, but in my opinion, all are extremely topical. I have not worked through the entire book, but in my scanning of each article, the content and quality is both understandable and detailed enough to provide a basic understanding of the material.
Who is the target audience for this book?
It is clear that this book was primarily written as a high-level undergraduate or graduate-level textbook. And like many books of this type, a working professional who is diligent (and determined) can work through the material on their own (and as needed) to help them with some problem in their job.
Finally, the quality of the book is of high standards. The text is written with a format that is neither straining on the eye nor is cluttered and compacted on the page. The binding, cover, and quality of paper is consistent with the high standards of Academic Press. So, with this volume, the reader is getting the theory and the foundation for what continues to be a 21st century field of high data rate transmission/reception.
While the authors say it's not advanced math, the book goes beyond what I'd considered to be basic math. There are probabilities (most people interested in this topic could understand) but the matrix algebra and calculus topics are a little advanced. It's all calculus that is covered in the first year of math, but I know I have forgotten most of mine from college so I struggled through some of those topics. I am definitely not a topic expert, but think the papers are well-written (if a bit dense) and provide some interesting solutions.
The book is not for a casual reader, but would likely benefit IT upperclassmen or graduate-level students or existing IT professionals who have some background in network coding.
If you are an EE or Cmpe major you should be fine with the level of math required for comprehension by your Junior year.
My boys had no problem in this area. It may be that as they are currently in college all the math is still very fresh in their minds (for those that have been out of college for awhile, it should come back to you pretty easily) I just didn't want all that hard "math" talk to scare anyone off from a great resource book on network coding! You will need to know up to the level of Linear Matrix Algebra, but my boys took that the summer after Calc 2!
This book is well written and structured and provides Computer Scientist and Engineers a great reference for bettering their understanding of Network Coding and how to apply it to future endeavors, this book is written for high level Undergraduate or Graduate students or professionals. This book would also be a great use in a Research Paper, due to the easy explanations that it offers into Theorems and Network Infrastructures or just for reference when working on designing future networks for business or cities.
In the end this is an easy to read and understand book that makes the topic of Network Coding easy to comprehend for people new to the field or wanting a reference for future projects. If you are a Computer Scientist or Engineer with an interest in Networking and communication then this is a must read!
The book is comprised of a number of applicable papers, and while the intended audience of those papers may be graduate level students, there is information in there for those who wish to parse out the math.
If you're looking for source code, there's none.
