Summary: The most complete book on discrete time control systems
Review: I used this book for a course on Digital Control System Design and it help me to have a clear understanding on continuous control system design methods applied to discrete time control systems. The book have chapters specialized in time domain and frequency domain analysis, along with alternative methods to design with damping and natural frequency specifications. Also, a chapter dedicated to microprocessors and digital signal processors help you understand the importance of computers in today's control applications. Digital Control Systems by Benjamin C. Kuo is highly readable and it encourages you on self studying. Amazing book!

Summary: Great Book, Complete, Rigorous, Not an easy read though
Review: I'am primarily a VLSI Design engineer working on a product requiring digital control. I'am using this Book along with Ditial Control by Franklin to understand the subject. This book is very comprehensive and the author takes pains to go into the details. I highly recommend it as a reference. For a newbie engineer (Yours truly) with limited time, this book has been a tough read. However if you are a student with enthu. to learn and time to burn, this is a Great book.
