Robot Manipulators : Mathematics, Programming, and Control (Artificial Intelligence)

Rating:
Summary: good book - Not for begginers
Review: It's an exelent book, but it needs a previous knowledge of the matter, the notation sometimes is not realy clear but it had all the algorithms and formulas for robotics

Summary: A good book, but only a close second
Review: The notation in this book is quite a problem. John J. Craig's book "Introduction to Robotics, Mechanics and Control" does a better job with the notation and clairity of explanation. The math is perfectly applicable, once one gets through the notation. Since there are a few concepts in Paul's book that are not covered in Craig's, both books should be part of a library for anyone involved in the mathematics of robotics.
