"The exposition is extremely clear. In order to motivate the general theory, the author presents a number of examples of two or three input-, two-output systems in detail. I highly recommend this excellent book to all those interested in the interplay between control theory and algebraic geometry." ―Publicationes Mathematicae, Debrecen
"This book is the multivariable counterpart of Methods of Algebraic Geometry in Control Theory, Part I.... In the first volume the simpler single-input–single-output time-invariant linear systems were considered and the corresponding simpler affine algebraic geometry was used as the required prerequisite. Obviously, multivariable systems are more difficult and consequently the algebraic results are deeper and less transparent, but essential in the understanding of linear control theory.... Each chapter contains illustrative examples throughout and terminates with some exercises for further study." ―Mathematical Reviews
