From the reviews of the first edition: "This is an extremely full treatment of its topic, with a total of 23 chapters by different groups of authors ... . 'The book on hand is one of the few comprehensive works on the market covering the fundamentals of model-based fault diagnosis ... '. This is an impressively comprehensive and well-prepared work. Each chapter begins with an introduction and ends with a summary, and is followed by an extensive list of references." (Alex M. Andrew, Kybernetes, Vol. 34 (5), 2005) "This book presents descriptions of modern diagnosis methods which are based on control engineering. ... the goal of the book is to present in a coherent way various research methods ... . The book contains most of the modern control methods which are used in fault diagnosis and wide bibliographical information. The book is a good introduction to fault diagnosis and may be very useful for students, post graduate students, engineers and scientists who deal with industrial control systems to guarantee their safety."
