Power quality is a pressing concern in electric power systems. One of the main requirements of power quality management is the guarantee of a sinusoidal voltage waveform with adequate amplitude at each node of the network. The fulfilment of such a control objective is facilitated by adaptive systems which can account for unpredictable fluctuations in operating conditions.

Adaptive Voltage Control in Power Systems, a self-contained blend of theory and novel application, is an in-depth treatment of such adaptive control schemes. The reader moves from power-system-modelling...

“Your husband has to be rushed to OR. He needs to have a chest tube put in to drain pleural fluid. Every one we’ve seen like this is malignant. Don’t you have family in New Jersey? We think you’d better go back there.”

Thus begins the first step of the wanderings—from diagnosis, through death, and followed by the first two years of widowhood. Grief is multiplied. Within several weeks, her family of eight—daughters, sons-in- law, grandchildren, and beloved twelve-year-old cat—had shrunk to two.

Based on daily journal entries, this...
