Abstract
This book is concerned with fundamental limits in the design of feedback control systems and filters. These limits tell us what is feasible and, conversely, what is infeasible, in a given set of circumstances. Their significance arises from the fact that they subsume any particular solution to a problem by defining the characteristics of all possible solutions.

Notes and References
Some of the studies of Bode seem to have been paralleled in Europe. For example, some old books refer to the Bode gain-phase relationship as the Bayard-Bode gain-phase relationship (e.g., Gille, Pelegrin & Decaulne (1959, pp. 154–155), Naslin (1965)), although precise references are not given. §1.3 is mainly extracted from Middleton (1991).
