Customer Reviews:

• Avg. Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0

• This textbook isn't new.
  This paperback book isn't new FYI. I ordered one and got it with bent on cover, opened CD, and some of worn pages.

• Excellent!
  Maybe not enough explanations behind maths. I didn't find the answers for the cases. Everything else is excellent. The DVD is very useful with Lingo / Lindo included.
  A must-have if you like Operations Research.
  

• The best resource on Operations Research for beginners, intermediates, and advanced knowledge seekers
  I hesitated a long time before I bought this book, and I am very sorry about that. I started my M.Sc. in Operations Research and Decisions at the Tel Aviv University 3 years ago, and the first course I took was Optimization. I was a new immigrant to Israel, and I had difficulty in understanding the subject in Hebrew (it is not that easy even when you master the language!) The course book was this one; therefore, I decided to put all my efforts in the book rather than in the classes. Thanks god!

• No solutions to the exercises - the downside...
  I haven't read the whole book, only selected chapters. Good book with thorough explanations (but may be considered by some too long winded). Very wordy in style, but OTOH has many examples (very important!) The style is for practioners - it's not a math or algorithms book.
  The bad side: no solutions on the back of the book, and no solutions manual to buy. Only instructors have access to the solutions manual. So, for self-study, you might want to look at the competition...ISBN: 0534380581
