This text for advanced undergraduates and graduates reading
applied mathematics, electrical, mechanical, or control
engineering, employs block diagram notation to highlight
comparable features of linear differential and difference
equations, a unique feature found in no other book. The
treatment of transform theory (Laplace transforms and
z-transforms) encourages readers to think in terms of transfer
functions, i.e. algebra rather than calculus. This contrives
short-cuts whereby steady-state and transient solutions are
determined from simple operations on the transfer functions.
