本书是关于纠错码的经典著作第二版修订本，涵盖了编码理论中的基本概念、编码技巧以及最新的研究成果和发展趋势。
Professor Petersons book Error-Correcting Codes was first published in 1961. With E. J. Weldon, Jr., as his coauthor, Professor Peterson has extensively revised the original material for a second edition. The new version contains all of the content from the initial publication; however, due to an abundance of recent research on error-correcting codes, creating this updated edition was significantly more challenging than writing the first book.
The major additions in this edition include chapters on majority-logic codes, synchronization, and convolutional codes. Additionally, substantial new information has been incorporated into sections covering important linear block codes and cyclic codes. The authors reference several highly esteemed books from Eastern Europe as well as a comprehensive bibliography of coding theory work published in the Soviet Union.
In its expanded form, Error-Correcting Codes can be considered another significant contribution to computer coding literature.
