Stability & Stabilization: An Introduction

"This book is a pleasant surprise. William Terrell selects and presents the field's key results in a fresh and unbiased way. He is enthusiastic about the material and his goal of setting forth linear and nonlinear stabilization in a unified format."--Miroslav Krstic, University of California, San Diego"This textbook has very positive features. The arguments are complete; it does not shy away from making correct proofs one of its main goals; it strikes an unusually good balance between linear and nonlinear systems; and it has many examples and exercises. It is also mathematically sophisticated for an introductory text, and it covers very recent material."--Jan Willems, coauthor ofIntroduction to Mathematical Systems TheoryTerrell, William J. is the author of 'Stability & Stabilization: An Introduction', published 2009 under ISBN 9780691134444 and ISBN 0691134448.
