✦ Synopsis

In conclusion, this book left me with mixed feelings. It definitely gives a complete account of the application of the decentralized method for manipulator control and as such, I recommend it to every engineer or scientist with interest in robotics. However, I have many questions about the effectiveness of such a design because of the successive linearizations, the enormous amount of computations which are prohibitive for real time control, and the lack of cognitive information, like visual sensing, to the control which is imperative in modern robotic systems. The scarcity, though, of other pertinent literature on design of manipulative robots makes this book valuable, but only as a monograph.
