From the reviews:"This book examines some fundamental modern control problems of nonlinear systems ... . The book is very well written. ... The results included in the book, along with an extensive bibliography will prove to be an important resource for researchers in this area as well as researchers interested in entering this area. ... a good text for a graduate or advanced undergraduate course. Short courses or training courses for control engineers to gain knowledge in nonlinear control systems would be another avenue for this book."
