If you are a Radar engineer, then you already have one or more versions of this book on your shelf. I can't imagine doing my job without it. The question becomes whether or not you should go through the trouble of asking your company to buy it for you or just use the volume you have. I think most of the chapters are the same but I know that Chapter 8, Pulse Compression Radar, has been upgraded. Ducoff's description of stretch processing is concise and relevant to modern Radars. I convinced my company to buy it based on that reason alone.

The day after I bought this book, I made a mistake telling a colleague about it, after which it was very difficult to track it down who has it and who is using it in a team of several Radar Engineers. They had all used it as a definitive reference book on any aspect of Radar design - it covers everything that you need to know and want to know right NOW about a Radar clearly and accurately.
If you are a newcomer and designing a Radar then buy a copy of 'Introduction to Radar' by Skolnik, which has a great source of information for the beginners and up and running Design Engineers, i.e. a good primer. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-04-29 09:31:12 EST)
