The engineering objective of high performance control using the tools of optimal control theory, robust control theory, and adaptive control theory is more achiev­ able now than ever before, and the need has never been greater.

Since we do not expect to always achieve our desires, a more complete title for this book could be "Towards High Performance Control". To illustrate our task, consider as an example a disk drive tracking system for a portable computer.
