　　This book presents a study on the novel concept of“event-triggered control of nonlinear systems subject to disturbances”， discussing the theory and practical applications. Richly illustrated， it is a valuable resource for researchers， engineers and graduate students in automation engineering who wish to learn the theories， technologies， and applications of event-triggered control of nonlinear systems.

　　Zhong-Ping Jiang received the B.Sc. degree in mathematics from the University of Wuhan， Wuhan， China， in 1988， the M.Sc. degree in statistics from the University of Paris XI， France， in 1989， and the Ph.D. degree in automatic control and mathematics from the Ecole des Mines de Paris， France， in 1993. He has been a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Polytechnic School of Engineering， New York University. His main research interest is in stability and control for interconnected nonlinear systems， with special emphasis on applications to information， mechanical and biological systems. He is the author of over 160 journal papers and numerous conference papers in these areas. He has written two books： Stability and Stabilization of Nonlinear Systems （with Dr. I. Karafyllis， Springer， 2011） and Nonlinear Control of Dynamic Networks （with Drs. T. Liu and D.J. Hill， CRC Press， Taylor & Francis， 2014）. Dr. Jiang is a Deputy co-Editor in-Chief of the Journal of Control and Decision， an Editor for the International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control and has served as an Associate Editor for several journals including Mathematics of Control， Signals and Systems （MCSS）， Systems & Control Letters， IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control， European Journal of Control， and Science China： Information Sciences. He is a recipient of the prestigious Queen Elizabeth II Fellowship Award from the Australian Research Council， the CAREER Award from the US National Science Foundation， and the Distinguished Overseas Chinese Scholar Award from the NSF of China. Recent awards recognizing his research work include the Best Theory Paper Award （with Y. Wang） at the 2008 WCICA， and the Guan Zhao Zhi Best Paper Award （with T. Liu and D.J. Hill） at the 2011 CCC， and the Shimemura Young Author Prize （with his student Yu Jiang） at the 2013 Asian Control Conference in Istanbul， Turkey. Prof. Jiang is a Fellow of the IEEE and a Fellow of the IFAC.
