About the Book and Audience

Power System Generation, Stability and Control is a textbook that provides an excellent focus on the advanced topics of power system generation and covers the important applications in power system management. Each chapter opens with an introduction that states the chapter objectives and links the chapter to the previous ones. All principles are presented in a lucid, logical and step-by-step approach. The author avoids wordiness and detail overload that could hide concepts and impede understanding as much as possible. In each chapter, the author has presented a few solved examples and applications using a computer program.

In recognition of requirements by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) on integrating computer tools, the use of MATLAB® is encouraged in a student-friendly manner. MATLAB® is introduced and applied gradually throughout the book.
The book is intended as a textbook for the senior-level undergraduate students in electrical and computer engineering. The book is also appropriate for graduate students, industry professionals, researchers and academicians.
