Control Engineering

A good book on the theoretical principles of control systems/process engineering - written in W. Bolton's accessible style.

The text is a little old. The material however is cover well by the author. It will serve well as a reference source.

The quality of the book was pristine and it looked almost new. I would definitely recommend it to people. Thank you.

This is the control book i wish i had at Uni. Complements uni notes perfectly and gives you a good understanding of the subject by using countless analogies. The key is it brings all the subjects of mechanical engineering together, plus good examples to work through.

If your lecturer has recommended some 1000 page monster of a book and your struggling then I suggest you try this. Pitched at the practical minded it is easy to read and understand and has helped me a lot. I tried the recommended text and struggled but reading this book gave me a good grounding in the basics and now the more complex book makes much more sense. I have not read a bad book by this man. If you find it is not deep enough Dutton, Thompson, Barraclough the art of control eng is not a bad next step.
