IEEE has defined Automatic Generation Control (AGC) as "the
regulation of the power output of electrical generators within a
prescribed area in response to change in system frequency, tie-line
loading, or the relation of these to each other, so as to maintain
the scheduled system frequency and/or the established interchange
with other areas within predetermined limits." In this book, a
comprehensive analysis of AGC of interconnected power systems has
been carried out - both in traditional and deregulated
environments. This book is intended as a reference for practising
engineers and research students.

Ascertaining the genre of this volume has been difficult. It is
much more than memoire, book of poetry, case study, dream journal,
and travelogue. It is all that, plus their integration into a
creative product.
It begins before the author's birth, when enterprising Grandfather
Joseph Abrahams came to America, soon to meet a mysterious death.
The extended family to follow prospered, and his grandson Joseph
likewise pursued the American dream, first in Texas, then New
England, New York, and during the war years, much of America. In
the course of a career in psychoanalysis, he ventured into study of
his own inner world for understanding of his life drives. There
analysis of his dreams have been central, then a bent for poetry.
The result is this volume, centering about a protracted rendezvous
with death, surfacing with an epic poem, entitled, A Passionate
Psychoanalyst.
The Fort Knox Story: Wartime Therapy of Army Offenders is an
account of a remarkable experiment during World War II that gives
us a blueprint for an effective correctional community in the
Twenty First Century. On the rolling hills of Kentucky, not far
from the Fort Knox Gold Depositary, Col. George L. Miller led an
intrepid band of Army reservists and mental health professionals in
a seminal fight for the hearts and minds of thousands of general
prisoners, returning a significant number to combat duty. The Fort
Knox Story tells us what went on in this battle - in its
patched-together shacks, training halls, and combat fields - that
presages those to come when we campaign to win back our prisons.
Basic to both is a prison, a secure place of containment, but also
of recovery from alienation, personal and social. There, as we
wrest control of the cliques and gangs - through group therapy,
media, education, and recreation - we collaborate in creation of a
"normal" culture, that by its very nature results in positive
change. The American Army accepted, even welcomed Fort Knox's
graduates, their success evidence of ongoing support and guidance.
In The Fort Knox Story we envision that the future correctional
community will be a "university within walls," training ground of a
range of professions, and backup to an extramural system of support
and guidance for its graduates. With many campuses, it will amount
to a school for living, as well as institute for research in the
causes and treatment of crime and deviance.
