Cook's book is aimed primarily at applications in control engineering that involve dynamic properties of nonlinear feedback systems. It deals with nonlinear dynamic systems that can be mathematically modeled in such a way that the output of the system can always be determined for a given input. Cook discusses state-space models, harmonic analysis, piecewise- linear models, stability, control system performance, and discrete-time systems. Several examples in each chapter demonstrate the concepts developed in those chapters for both engineering and natural-science types of problems. Most chapters also have a set of exercise problems. This book is directed primarily toward graduate students and faculty in electrical and control engineering; however, it would also be useful for advanced undergraduate students in the same fields of study.-C.R.
