Among its many accolades, that first edition was cited by the AAP as the \u003cem\u003eBest Engineering Handbook of 1996\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow, 15 years later, William Levine has once again compiled the most comprehensive and authoritative resource on control engineering. He has fully reorganized the text to reflect the technical advances achieved since the last edition and has expanded its contents to include the multidisciplinary perspective that is making control engineering a critical component in so many fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow expanded from one to three volumes, \u003cstrong\u003eThe Control Handbook, Second Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e brilliantly organizes cutting-edge contributions from more than 200 leading experts representing every corner of the globe. The first volume, \u003cstrong\u003eControl System Fundamentals\u003c\/strong\u003e, offers an overview for those new to the field but is also of great value to those across any number of fields whose work is reliant on but not exclusively dedicated to control systems. Covering mathematical fundamentals, defining principles, and basic system approaches, this volume: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetails essential background, including transforms and complex variables \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes mathematical and graphical models used for dynamical systems \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers analysis and design methods and stability testing for continuous-time systems \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDelves into digital control and discrete-time systems, including real-time software for implementing feedback control and programmable controllers \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnalyzes design methods for nonlinear systems \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with the first edition, the new edition not only stands as a record of accomplishment in control engineering but provides researchers with the means to make further advances.
