Systems Engineering Principles and Practice by Alexander Kossiakoff

This bestselling textbook on systems engineering addresses the need for an introductory overview, first-text for the development and acquisition of complex technical systems. The material is fundamental to learning how to think like a systems engineer and carry out best practices in the field.

Aimed at advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, this textbook is intended as an introduction to the developmetn and acquisition of complex technical systems.. The second edition is intended to offer expansion, integration and clarification to maintain relevance and currency. (Times Higher Education Supplement {Texbook Guide}, 3 November 2011) The book is very readable and gives a particularly good grounding in the subject of systems engineering. It is therefore a valuable volume for any electronics engineering student, practising engineer, or as a reference for a company designing any form of equipment needing a systems engineering approach.
