Reviews for Optimization: Foundations and Applications
The author's extensive teaching experience is reflected in hisupbeat, relaxed writing style and preesntation. (Short BookReviews, V21, No1, April 2001) "...accessible to people who have neither formal mathematicaltraining nor any background in optimization...this text could beuseful for an introductory class on optimization..." (SIAM Review,Vol. 43, No. 3)
