Summary: A classic in this subject
Comment: The book is quite common on instrumentation engineers' desk but I recommend it also to chemical engineers involved in Startup of chemical plants and to engineers dealing with the design of continuous plants.

Summary: Difficult to Use, But, Very Enlightening
Comment: I met Dr. Shinskey once through a seminar sponsored by a college classmate. His ready explanations made me want to read his book. I tried. I struggled through the first 200 pages and gave up. Since then, I often referred back to it and find it enlightening in solving difficult control problems. However, I cannot use his solutions directly because the examples are difficult to follow. Equations are all very nice but should relate to physical data in some way. Starting with instrument measurement and leading to the practical solution is how authors such as Dr. Levenspiel of Oregon explain difficult problems. That, is how I would improve this text. As for the problems in each chapter, forget it. The information provided was confusing; I seldom found the right answer even after reviewing his solution. I suggest a solution book with the book itself. The problems drove me nuts.
