“This book presents a tangible overview of the theory and application of synchronization in a multi-agent system with an eye on disturbance and time delays. It is self-contained with preliminaries, theorem proofs and references. … This book is accessible to anyone studying systems and control theory with an undergraduate level of mathematics.” (Yilun Shang, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2022)
