Basics of Remote Sensing from Satellite
written by Ken Pryor and Jim LaDue
published by the NOAA/NESDIS
If you're interested in satellite images, this is the place to start. You can learn how the images are enhanced and also how they are interpreted, with many samples included. You will have to do some reading, but the images make it all worthwhile.
