I think the Handbook of Astronomical Image processing by Berry and Burnell is a much better reference.

I'll second this opinion. AIP4Win provides very concise examples and a thorough explanation of the theory behind the pretty pictures. A must for those who want to understand the science/physics behind the art/image.
