What They're Saying

Critics Review

“The book presents the basic ideas of linear programming and related areas by not using a rigorous approach. The main objective, to provide a textbook that is readable by students in business, engineering, and computer science, seems to have been achieved….A rich set of more than 280 exercises, real-life projects and further reading suggestions successfully stimulates learning.” –MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS

”…The book is very clearly written with many illustrative examples and exercises. The proofs of theoretical results are kept to a minimum so that the book is easy to read even for non mathematics students. It is an excellent textbook on linear programming at an introductory level.” –ZENT. FUR MATHEMATIK UNDIHRE GRENZGEBIETE
