Book Description
"Some of the wisest words for investors can be found in this book, not only because of Curtis Montgomery's extensive studies but also by the fascinating framework he uses. Applying Chinese philosophy and particularly that of Sun Tzu to investing make a lot of sense. Sun Tzu's Art of War contains a great deal of wisdom applicable to investing and Montgomery illustrates this beautifully." - Mark Mobius, Managing Director, Templeton Emerging Markets Fund, Author of Passport to Profits and Mobius on Emerging Markets
"With this book, Curtis Montgomery has provided an enormous service to the investor and he stock market community. This book shows how to apply Sun Tzu's timeless understanding of strategy to the stock market. Drawing on examples from today, and based on lessons from the past, this book belongs on the bookshelf of every serious investor." - Franklin Lavin, U.S. Ambassador to Singapore "Investors from all cultures will enjoy Sun Tzu on Investing, as it makes relevant the universal paradox of business that strategy must be like water, with form yet formless, and most robust when it is least rigid. Such ancient Taoist insights are presented here in a fresh and entertaining style that will enlighten every investing mind." - Dr. Ron Sim, Chief Executive Officer, OSIM International Ltd.
"Few Westerners have such a deep grasp of the Taoist philosophy of Sun Tzu as Curtis Montgomery. By citing Buddha, Leonardo da Vinci, Charles Darwin and many other Montgomery unveils the profound depth of the Art of War. Read Sun Tzu on Investing and you are closer to Tao; the effortless way, winning without fighting." - Dr Foo Check Teck, Author of Reminiscences of an Ancient Strategist: Mind of Sun Tzu
Customer Reviews:
Expensive, weak analogies and constant day-trader bashing.......2006-02-25
I am going to be in the minority here, and give the book a negative review. This book is only suited to those who have very little experience in fundamental analysis, or those who are a little interested in the Chinese culture. For those who want to learn about Sun Tzu's work, this is probably not a good place to start as the book covers only a small portion of it. Montgomery tries hard to make analogies between Sun Tzu's combat strategies and investment, but only manages to sound convincing half the time. Each new chapter will begin with Sun Tzu's philosophy. Parallels with investment strategies are made. The rest of the chapter would then concentrate on fundamental analysis. The sections of Montgomery's book on fundamental analysis are sound, and the case studies he cites are interesting. Investors who are new to investment would certainly enjoy stories of great investors such as Warren Buffet. The section on how to read financial statements is simple and will gently lead beginners into the area. Perhaps the most frustrating aspect of the book is Montgomery's incessant criticism of technical analysis, day-trading, and swing trading. A biased one-sided comparison given during introductions should be enough to vent his apparent anger at day-traders. Instead, the author launches a fresh salvo every chapter, and enjoys associating technical analysis with tea leaves reading, and likes to take his time to equate day-traders with fools. I think a more grounded argument would have been preferable to petty name calling. One wonders why 1/5 of the book is spent on bashing people who don't do long term investments. A chip on his shoulder, perhaps? If he had any training in technical analysis, he would realise that Sun Tzu's philosophy of universal truths also applies well in that area. My advice: For the price of $30+ (current price), there are far better books on investment (fundamental analysis), and certainly much more enlightening ones on Sun Tzu. If you see this book going for $10 one day, buy it for a change from other investment books. This book is ideal for beginners who want to kill two birds with one stone.
Sun Tzu on Investment.......2003-11-30
Congratulation. A new standard has been set. Curtis J Montgomery has written a clear, concise and profound investment book based on the timeless wisdom of Sun Tzu's The Art Of War. It is indeed exhilarating to read how the taoist understanding of human psychology (and by implication, the behaviour of capital markets)
as epitomised by Sun Tzu's the Art of War can contribute to superior investment (bottom fishing).
Invest in This Book!.......2003-11-03
Curtis Montgomery's Sun Tzu on Investing has helped me, a novice at investing, to see the simplicity and strategy involved in making wise investment choices. His use of Sun Tzu's war concepts, such as thinking independently, creativity, and patient planning make investing seem easy. I hope to apply these concepts to any of my future investments, and highly recommend this book to anyone interested in broadening their knowledge of the basic principles of investing.
Timeless Gems of Wisdom.......2003-10-29
It's amazing how the reasoning and the tactics of an ancient Chinese warrior apply to the modern day stock investor. The battlefields are different but the strategies sre the same. The author makes these comparisons in an easy-to-read style. No wonder he's known throughout Asia as the "Singapore Sage". It is a fine piece of work.
A long awaited invesment title.......2003-10-25
This book has showed how ancient war strategies can be put into practise in todays investment war field. There are illustration on some existing companies showing how Sun Tzu's strategies is being applied. A value add to investment knowledge.

Book Description
This thoroughly revised textbook is a basic introduction to plasma phenomena in solar and stellar coronae emphasizing non-MHD aspects. The natural way in which the author unifies observations and theory gives a wide perspective to the subject. An important feature is the lucidly written presentation of the fundamentals of plasma physics. The basic theory thus developed is then extended to some exemplary and important observations of coronal dynamics, such as coronal currents, particle acceleration, propagation of particle beams, and shocks.
The book has grown from teaching introductory courses on plasma astrophysics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH). It addresses advanced undergraduates and first-year graduate students without a background in plasma physics. It will also be of interest to more senior research workers involved in coronal physics of the Sun and other stars, solar/stellar winds, and various other fields of plasma astrophysics.

Book Description
Nonlinear Control Systems and Power System Dynamics presents a comprehensive description of nonlinear control of electric power systems using nonlinear control theory, which is developed by the differential geometric approach and nonlinear robust control method. This book explains in detail the concepts, theorems and algorithms in nonlinear control theory, illustrated by step-by-step examples. In addition, all the mathematical formulation involved in deriving the nonlinear control laws of power systems are sufficiently presented. Considerations and cautions involved in applying nonlinear control theory to practical engineering control designs are discussed and special attention is given to the implementation of nonlinear control laws using microprocessors.
Nonlinear Control Systems and Power System Dynamics serves as a text for advanced level courses and is an excellent reference for engineers and researchers who are interested in the application of modern nonlinear control theory to practical engineering control designs.
Customer Reviews:
very good book.......2007-02-14
This is a very good textbook about the nonlinear control of power systems. The first part is about general nonlinear control with emphasis on some control methods. Thease are mainly zero dynamics and feedback linearization with main reference on the textbook of Alberto Isidori.
The other part of the textbook is about the power system control.
Other advanced nonlinear control methods are missing in this book - such as backstepping control, sliding mode, etc. However, these can be found in other souces (e.g. Khalil, Krstic, Utkin) but with limited application to power system control. Hence, the main value of this textbook is in power system models developed for the control and applied using some advanced nonlinear control methods.
