Summary: The more things change, the more they stay the same!
Comment: This book is written in an older formal style without being overly rigorous. Why is it that the best books, the ones that make you think, are so thin compared to the standard fare?
This book offers the most comprehensive treatment of morphology that I have been able to find. It concentrates on mophology and not on image processing. The other books I have looked at treat mophology in one or two chapters as compared to this book which is devoted to the subject.
Beware, this is not a cookbook. It is not for those looking for a quick fix or a bag of tricks. The math, although written in a formal style, does not require an advanced degree. Anyone with a solid foundation in set theory, geometry and algebra will find the book very readable--a little bit of analysis helps. But it will take time to absorb everything.
In addition to the theory, the book does an excellent job of relating the material to practical applications, as the title claims. However, it is up to the reader to see how various transformations might be combined into larger algorithms.
I am very pleased that I spent the money for this book. It is well worth it. I plan to spend a great deal time with it.
I found numerous web sites that provided information. Just search for "Morphological Image Analysis" and you will be surprised at what you find.

Summary: An excellent textbook on mathematical morphology
Comment: This book serves as an introduction to image analysis in general and mathematical morphology in particular. In spite of its somewhat terrifying name, mathematical morphology is both a sound theory and an intuitive set of techniques useful for pattern recognition, image filtering, image segmentation, and taking measurements out of image content, among others.
This books provides a clear explanation of the theoretical background in a progressive and logical way. Examples and applications abound. The style is clear and concise.
The book covers most aspects of modern mathematical morphology and will satisfy the newcomers, thanks to its style, the practitioner thanks to its thoroughness and the researcher thanks to its extensive bibliography.
