“The book under review consists of eight chapters, each introducing techniques for solving problems on manifolds and illustrating these with examples. … reading this book would add to my collection of tools for working with data on manifolds and expose me to new problems treatable by these tools. … In each case an effort has been made to provide enough of the underlying theory supporting the techniques, with explicit references where the interested reader can go for further details.” (Tim Zajic, IAPR Newsletter, Vol. 39 (3), July, 2017)
