Very basically - The system monitors wheel speed through the ABS sensors at each wheel. If it sees one front wheel spinning faster than the other, it will apply the brake at that wheel. It can also reduce throttle by closing the throttle plate if necessary.
There is no 'limited slip' - this refers to clutches in the differential that prevent the axles from turning at wildly different speeds. The differential in the 9-5 transaxle is a basic open diff without clutches.
