The second edition is different from the first one in three aspects:

1. The material of the book has been reorganized into analysis vs
design chapters. The first nine chapters deal with nonlinear analysis
tools that apply to general nonlinear systems.  Chapter 10 presents
analysis tools for feedback systems. The last three chapters deal with
control design for nonlinear systems.

2. There is an expanded coverage of some material as well as coverage of 
new topics not included in the first edition. The new topics include:
        Passivity approach to analysis of feedback systems.
        Gain scheduling
        Backstepping
        Sliding mode control

The expanded coverage includes:

        Input-output stability (including L2 gain)
        Design via linearization (including output feedback and 
                integral control)
        Feedback linearization (including input-output linearization
                and differential geometric approach)

3. New exercises have been added, bringing the total number of exercises 
to over 400, many of which are multiple-part exercises. A solution manual 
is available from the publisher for instructors. 

The complete table of contents is given below.
