'The book represents an excellent treatise of non-linear filtering from a Bayesian perspective. It has a nice balance between details and breadth, and it provides a nice journey from the basics of Bayesian inference to sophisticated filtering methods.' Petar M. Djuric, Stony Brook 'An excellent and pedagogical treatment of the complex world of nonlinear filtering. It is very valuable for both researchers and practitioners.' Lennart Ljung, Linkoeping University
