Introducing readers to adaptive systems in a rigorous but elementary fashion, this text emphasizes the mainstream developments in adaptive control and signal processing of linear discrete time systems. A unified framework is developed whereby the reader can analyze and understand any adaptive system in the literature. The so-called equilibrium analysis facilitates an understanding of the limitations and potential of adaptive systems in a transparent fashion; while the behavioural approach to linear systems plays an essential role at some key points in the text. So-called universal controllers are presented in some detail. Each chapter is accompanied by exercises that aim to develop certain aspects of the theory, as well as to give the reader a better understanding of the actual behaviour of adaptive systems.

From the reviews:
"This book is intended to be a first introduction to the theory of adaptive systems for graduate students. It treats exclusively deterministic adaptive control in a discrete-time formulation.... The basic course material contained in Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 is supplemented with the presentation of more advanced problems and tools such as well-posedness of the control problem during adaptation (Chapter 7), averaging techniques for analysis of adaptive systems (Chapter 8), and global dynamical analysis of adaptive systems operating in a plant-model mismatch situation (Chapter 9)." ―Mathematical Reviews
"The book is based on graduate courses taught by both authors and is intended as a text-book. Therefore it is self contained and only basic knowledge of linear algebra and ordinary differential equations is needed. ... cover the basic theory of adaptive systems and can be used for a one trimester course. ... The book is accompanied by many solved and unsolved exercises, two Maple procedures and a large bibliography." (EMS Newsletter, Issue 27, March, 1998)
