In this review paper we consider some of the basics of nonholonomic systems, considering in particular how it is possible do derive nonholonomic equations of motion as a limit of a Lagrangian system subject to dissipation. This in then extended to show how dissipation may be induced from a Hamiltonian field with a view to quantization of the system.
