Rezensionen

'... an excellent volume ... It is the first book I have read that brings together the relevant mathematical results from such a wide variety of underlying disciplines. The writing is very clear, and the production standard is excellent ... an invaluable reference manual for graduate students and researchers working on these topics ... The price is appropriate for a volume of this type, especially as the book serves both to educate the reader and to serve as a reference manual.' Journal of the Operational Research Society
