If you are fortunate enough to have a copy of the Philbrick Applications
Manual (published circa 1965), look on page 23 for a complete discussion of
clamping or bounding circuits.  For all but the most demanding
applications, a pair of matched zener diodes back to back in parallel with
the feedback resistor work just fine.
