[sdiy] Transfer Functions

[Tim Stinchcombe]

If I ever need to check something, or can't remember something, invariably
the first book I pull off the shelf is 'Design of Analog Filters' by
Schaumann & van Valkenburg:

http://www.amazon.com/Design-Analog-Filters-Rolf-Schaumann/dp/0195118774/ref
=cm_cr_pr_product_top#_

The reviews there generally reflect how I feel about it: yes, there is the
odd error or two; hadn't even noticed there was no MATLAB stuff in it, but
that also appears true; and I would urge you to check the introductory stuff
in the 'look inside', as it certainly assumes the reader is comfortable with
some key concepts, like working in the frequency domain, and what a Laplace
transform is (I doubt it even defines the latter...).
