Error-Correcting Codes, by Professor Peterson, was originally published in 1961. Now,with E. J. Weldon, Jr., as his coauthor, Professor Peterson has extensively rewritten his material.The book contains essentially all of the material of the first edition; however, the authors statethat because there has been so much new work published in error-correcting codes, the preparation ofthis second edition proved to be a much greater task than writing the original book. The majoradditions are the chapters on majority-logic codes, synchronization, and convolutional codes. Muchnew material has also been added to the chapters on important linear block codes and cyclic codes.The authors cite some highly regarded books on recent work done in Eastern Europe and an extensivebibliography on coding theory in the Soviet Union [sic]. In its much-expanded form, Error-CorrectingCodes may be considered another valuable contribution to computer coding.
