  Index  
        "there is a need for good books that explain the questions and results of control theory in a way that mathematicians can understand while doing justice to the engineering side and giving many examples of real application. The Control Handbook is an ambitious and spectacularly successful effort to respond to this need. It is a most welcome addition to the literature in the field."
  - Hector J. Sussmann, Rutgers University
  "clearly sets a standard by bringing together a reference which will equally well serve the scholar, the practitioner, and the student in one volume."
  -IEEE Control Systems, December 1998
  The Control Handbook is the AAP winner of best engineering handbook of 1996
