"Abundant praise for the previous edition. . . ...this book is well-suited to accompany courses in operations research....mathematical theory is well motivated by interesting and plausible examples." ---Mathematical Reviews (1998) ..."very recommendable as a textbook and to anybody wishing to learn the topic." ---Optimization (1997) ..."the book is a nice balance between theory and applications....and gives a sound background for the techniques used and for investigating real problems." ---Zentralblatt f]r Mathematik (1998) ..."[a] clearly written textbook." ---Operations Research Spectrum (1998)
