As a monograph, this book is a rare work in LP, containing many noval ideas and methods, supported by complete computational results. As revealed from the perspective of theory, the most recently achieved results, such as reduced and D-reduced simplex methods, as well as ILP solvers--- controlled-cut and controlled-branch methods, are very significant and promising, though there are no computational results available at this stage.
With a focus on computation, the content of this book ranges from simple to profound, clear and fresh. In particular, all algorithms are accompanied by examples for demonstration whenever possible.
As a milestone of LP, this book is an indispensable tool for undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, practitioners and researchers, in LP and related fields.

"The book seems to be mainly addressed to scientists who already possess some expertise in LP. The kind of presentation, however, also allows using parts of it as a basis for a course on the topic. In fact, a special feature of the book is that an algorithm typically is accompanied by some example for which the results of all computational steps needed to find a solution are written down."

"This book is a research monograph focusing on computational techniques in the simplex method for linear programming. ... It may be of interest to researchers and developers of simplex method codes for linear programming." (B. Borchers, Choice, Vol. 52 (3), November, 2014)
