Pitman George R. Jr. (ed.) Inertial Guidance

Wiley, 1962. 481 p.In the Spring of 1960 the Engineering and Physical Science Extension Office at the University of California at Los Angeles requested that several of the contributors to this book organize and present an intensive two-week short course on inertial guidance. Because the design and development of modern inertial guidance systems depend upon a
large body of knowledge drawn from such diverse fields as instrument design, computer technology, servomechanisms, analytical mechanics,
and precision measurementation it was decided that the course and ultimately, a book on this subject should utilize specialists in these various
fields.
