(More customer reviews)This is an excellent book not only for new students to process control but also for the experienced practitioner in need of a handy basics reference book.
I am a controls engineer with 9 years of experience in designing advanced control and optimization strategies for the chemical industry. I have several excellent texts on chemical process control (Marlin, Luyben, Stephanopoulos, Camacho, Ogunnaike etc.) and I must say that this book is a welcome addition to my collection.
Prof Chau adopts an informal conversational style of writing that immediately puts one at ease. The practice problems are relevant and useful hints for their solution are provided in the book itself. I especially like the approach of using MATLAB to accomplish the drudgery of, for e.g., frequency response plots or state space solutions.
A great book for its price and one that should be on your shelf!

Process Control covers the most essential aspects of process control suitable for a one-semester introductory course. While classical techniques are discussed, Chau also covers state space modeling and control, a modern control topic lacking in most introductory texts. MATLAB, a popular engineering software package, is employed as a powerful yet approachable computational tool. Each chapter concludes with problem sets, to which hints or solutions are provided. The support website provides excellent support in the way of MATLAB outputs of text examples and MATLAB sessions, references, and supplementary notes.
