| Description: |
A survey of advances in the field of control engineering from 1930 to 1955, which traces the development of servomechanisms and the electronic negative feedback amplifier, and describes organizations which were developed during World War II to deal with industrial applications. |
| Synopsis: |
Following his book on the origin of control engineering (1800-1930) the author now traces development through the critical period 1930-1955, widely identified as the period of 'classical' control theory. In the 1930s basic automatic control devices were developed and used in process industries, as were servos for the control of aircraft and ships and amplifiers for the telephone system and early computers etc. |
