Abstract

The range of books reviewed is wide, covering theory and applications in operations research, statistics, management science, econometrics, mathematics, computers, and information systems (no software is reviewed). In addition, we include books in other fields that emphasize technical applications. Publishers who wish to have their books reviewed should send them to Professor Benjamin Lev. We list the books received; not all books received can be reviewed because space is limited. Those who would like to review books are urged to send me their names, addresses, and specific areas of expertise. We commission all reviews and do not accept unsolicited book reviews. Readers are encouraged to suggest books that might be reviewed or to ask publishers to send me copies of such books.The authors or editors of the books reviewed in this issue are William J. Altier, Dimitris Bertsimas, Robert M. Freund, Ezey Dar-El, Yiannis Gabriel, Randolph W. Hall, Michael C. Jackson, George M. Marakas, Russell Merris, Sheldon M. Ross, and Avraham Shtub.
