5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST BOOK EVER MADE IN CONTROL, March 16, 2000
This review is from: The Control Handbook (Electrical Engineering Handbook) (Hardcover)
This book contains every thing written in engineering control. Every topic is presented in full detail with helpful examples. If you don't know any thing about control, follow this book page by page and you will be a professional control engineer. You don't need to make any revision before using the book because the first four sections of the book are "Mathematical Foundations" which will give you the needed background to use the book efficiently. If you buy 10 books in various topics of control, you will still find things in The Control Handbook that are not available in your books. My advice is: " this book is a must"

5.0 out of 5 stars This is THE BOOK!, September 8, 1999
This review is from: The Control Handbook (Electrical Engineering Handbook) (Hardcover)
If you are a control engineer, get this book now. Not only does it cover all (relevant) topics in the broad field of controls, it contains literally hundreds of references to more detailed treatments of everything. I want to read it all. Wow!

2.0 out of 5 stars Okay, But Not Thrilled, February 7, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Control Handbook (Electrical Engineering Handbook) (Hardcover)
This handbook is good to have as a reference. However, there are much better handbooks out there, which are better organized by topic. After purchase, I read it once and have not found myself revisiting it since. Again, it is good as a tool for control engineers, but not the best.
