Editorial Review:
Ideal for classroom use or self-study, this newly revised best-selling book has provided thousands of students, technicians, sales people, and others with a practical introduction to the technologies, systems, and strategies involved in industrial process control. The fourth edition takes the same proven intuitive approach of previous editions. Each chapter begins with basic definitions and mathematical concepts that allow readers to become well versed in the principles necessary to understand the variables that affect process control systems. New features in the fourth edition include improved coverage of analytical measurement and control, and the addition of sections on the international standard for PLC languages; process visualization; and personal computer-based control systems. The book also includes solutions to exercises that make it more suitable for self-study. A bonus CD-ROM is also included!

Foundation for a Control Systems Engineer 2008-05-17
I'm in the process of preparing to take the Principles and Practices Exam for Control Systems Engineering. I studied Electrical Engineering in college and have worked mostly with distributed/digital controls since then. I have performed little to no valve sizing or instrument selection.

I purchased this book to lay the foundation for the things I did not learn in school and have not practiced at work (instruments and valves).

This book is simple to read and provides the right amount of detail for teaching the Basics. I reviewed this book before taking an ISA CSE PE review course. Measurement and Control Basics provided enough knowledge so that I did not look completely clueless during the review course.

This book will not provide you with all the knowledge to prepare for the CSE PE exam, but it will get you started. I recommend reading this book, and then taking an ISA review course to identify other areas you need to study before the exam.
