Review:

"Control System Design Guide should be on every practicing servo control engineer's shelf. It provides a comprehensive overview of design methods and guidelines that typically take years of practice to learn. I wish that there had been a copy to read when I started my career in servo control. If you are working in this field, I strongly recommend that you read this book." -- R. William Kneifel II, Ph.D., Development Manager, Trellis Software & Controls, Inc.

"No matter how much you think you may know about the subject, there is something everyone can learn from this book. This book is control systems A-Z, and is the best book I have seen on the subject." -- Dave Trapasso, Senior Project Engineer, Delphi Automotive Systems
