From the reviews:“The monograph under review concerns finite-dimensional deterministic optimal control problems. … The main body of the book is divided into seven chapters. … The variety of fully solved examples that illustrate the theory makes this text a strong educational asset. The book is recommended as a comprehensive textbook for both advanced undergraduate and all levels of graduate courses on optimal control in mathematics and engineering.” (Ovidiu Cârjă, zbMATH, Vol. 1276, 2014)“The book presents a comprehensive treatment of both necessary and sufficient conditions for optimal control using geometric approach … . The book is of interest to senior and graduate students in engineering and mathematics, and scientists and engineers working in academic and industrial organizations. … The book is a valuable addition to some of the recent books on this ever-green field of Optimal Control … .” (D. Subbaram Naidu, Amazon.com, September, 2013)“Grown out of well-tested lecture notes, large parts of this volume are suitable as a comprehensive textbook at an advanced undergraduate or at the graduate level, either in mathematics or in engineering … . this most readable text provides a rich and versatile resource which is suitable as a textbook in various settings, is a valuable reference for theory, and which provides a very large collection of model examples that are analyzed completely using state-of-the-art methods.” (Matthias Kawski, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2013)“Schättler (electrical and systems engineering, Washington Univ.) and Ledzewicz (mathematics and statistics, Southern Illinois Univ.) use a geometric approach to present the theory of optimal control. … authors have developed a general approach that can be applied to a wide variety of control problems. … This book may be of interest to graduate students and researchers working in this area. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and researchers/faculty.” (B. Borchers, Choice, Vol. 50 (5), January, 2013)

Geometric Optimal Control

From the reviews:

"This book is a collection of nine contemporary articles by leading experts covering a large range of areas of interest to practitioners in the field including; fabrication, spin dynamics and transport, spin readout, optical manipulation, and electron spins in quantum dots. ... Researchers and graduate students in this, or related areas, would find this collection a very useful and readable up-to-date reference." (Lloyd C L Hollenberg, The Physicist, Vol. 40 (3), 2003)

'...a labour of love and a major contribution to the burgeoning international literature...it will fill an evident gap in the available scholarship.' - Peter Hall, University College, London" ...a work of comparative history at its best. There are no false comparisons or wide-ranging generalisations. Instead there is a meticulous review... magnificiently produced, the quality of illustrations is outstandingly good and the author has been given space for text and notes which makes it extremely easy to use. Nothing but praise and thanks to the author for a work which will give so much pleasure and instruction."'Planning Europe's Capital Cities will also, as mentioned by Peter Hall in the foreword, 'throw light on great planners whose reputations have too long laid in their own lands and languages'. It will also inform visitors as to how many features, which now seem quintessential characteristics of the cultural heritage of many European cities, were created at the time.' - Claude Chaline, Town Planning ReviewHall's book is a useful resource for understanding the challenges faced by urban planners of large cities in the nineteenth century, and it is valuable as a starting point for scholars wishing to pursue further study of urban planning in nineteenth century Europe. - Erik C. Maiershofer, H-Urban

You'll Never Know

"I (an undergraduate comp sci major) personally enjoyed this book. The author clearly has a love of numbers that can prove infectious. … the proofs given are all clear and easy to understand."—SIGACT News, 2014

"Upon reading this edition anew, I was struck by its superb mathematical taste. I knew I was meant to spend my life loving numbers and working with them; From Zero to Infinity crucially told me that there was a large community of People of Number I could hope to join when I grew up. … As I got older, I continued to read From Zero to Infinity and the other influential math books I knew … I was truly fortunate to have run across From Zero to Infinity when I did."—Bruce Reznick, Notices of the AMS, February 2007
"This book should be in the library of every mathematics teacher, and university faculty who prepare students to teach mathematics should also own this book."—Murray H. Siegel, Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, February 2007

"… a sequence of rare beauty, a drama built out of nothing but numbers—and imagination."—Freeman Dyson, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton
"… singular for its insight into the imagination, relevance, and sheer excitement of mathematics."—Kirkus Bulletin, November 2005
