Abstract

R Clay Chichester: Wiley 1971 pp x + 284 price £6·55

Anyone looking for a powerful unified approach to nonlinear systems analysis which they can absorb as bedtime reading had better not attempt this book. The network analyst will find the first chapters on graph theory and networks familiar whereas control engineers will be very conversant with the chapters containing the Nyquist approach to stability analysis via the describing function and the limited methods of phase plane analysis including the Li£nard construction.
