Automatic Control Systems Seventh Edition Benjamin C. Kuo Updated to reflect the increasing use of computer-aided learning and design, the seventh edition of Automatic Control Systems features a new, accessible approach for students taking introductory courses on control systems while retaining the depth and rigor of Benjamin Kuo’s classic, best-selling text. This new edition integrates several real world applications throughout the text, covering both analysis and design. Other new features of the solution of complex problems with the aid of computer software*thorough discussion of steady-state error analysis, including nonunity-feedback systems*discussion of circuit realization of controller transfer functions*simplified treatment of Nyquist criterion on systems with nonminimum-phase transfer functions*discussion of time-domain and frequency-domain designs side by side in one chapter*added chapter on design of discrete-data control systemsThe text also includes an abundance of illustrative examples, problems, and marginal notes to highlight important points and comments. Contents include full chapters mathematical foundation transfer functions, block diagrams, and signal-flow graphs mathematical modeling of physical systems state-variable analysis stability of linear control systems time-domain analysis of control systems root-locus techniques frequency-domain analysis design of control systems design of discrete-data control systems

I read this book a part of my Bachelors course on Linear Control Systems. It was prescribed as a text book but I used it more like a reference. I do not remember much about the contents of the book, but the course sure was fun.
