Fractional Calculus for Scientists and Engineers

From the reviews: "Fractional calculus--the theory of differential and integral operators of noninteger order--is an area of mathematics that has been neglected for a very long period of time. ... Ortigueira provides a look at this theory from the point of view of someone working in signal processing. ... it may be a book suitable for experts in signal processing who want to learn how they can use fractional calculus for the modeling of their circuits and systems ... ."
