The author, Peter A. Rinck, is one of the pioneers of nuclear magnetic resonance in medicine and of magnetic resonance imaging.
Opinions about the former printed editions of the book:

European Radiology: "An outstanding book, an excellent well-proven didactic approach."
Journal of Magnetic Resonance imaging (JMRI): "The book more than fulfills its attempted purpose."
Amazon Review: "This text is by far the best treatise of MRI at the basic level."
Academic Radiology: "In summary, it is not only an ideal first text, but it's a bargain."
Fortschr Röntgenstr (RöFo): "In fact, an MR expert has finally succeeded in putting himself in the MR beginner's shoes, explaining the necessary basic knowledge in a very vivid and entertaining way."
