5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent nonlinear systems book
As a Ph.D student I found this book very helpful and I would like to recommend this book everyone involved in nonlinear systems. I also have Vidyasagar's (i wish there were more example problems) and Khalil's nonlinear systems(mainly devoted to Lyapunov analysis) books which are also good but I found this book much explanatory than others.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not good book!
The book is not good in my opinion. The font size of writing is small and quality of pictures is not good. Sometimes, it is not easy to understand about what the author is talking. Some english sentences of the author are not gramatically correct and hence it makes difficult to understand the material. The steps in profs of theorems and lemmas are skipped. In summary, I...

2.0 out of 5 stars Not good book!, April 25, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The book is not good in my opinion. The font size of writing is small and quality of pictures is not good. Sometimes, it is not easy to understand about what the author is talking. Some english sentences of the author are not gramatically correct and hence it makes difficult to understand the material. The steps in profs of theorems and lemmas are skipped. In summary, I do not suggest anybody to buy this book. Try other books on this subject.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book., August 3, 2007
This review is from: Nonlinear Systems (Hardcover)
This is a good book devoted to nonlinear systems.
Compared to Vidyasagar's book, this book has more mathematical rigour, therefore, to follow it you should have a good Calculus/Linear Algebra /
Analysis background (I recommend to have good books of these subjects while reading Sastry).
Some topics are more intuitively than explicitly covered. The same thing occurs in the exercises at the end of the chapters. Because of this I think that you should not follow only this book in a first course on nonlinear systems. I recomend Khalil's and Isidori's book as parallel readings.
