"The book is an excellent introduction to linear programming, that most practitioners of the art could read with profit. I shall certainly keep it close at hand in future." from Nigel Hall's review in the Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1997, Issue 3.
From finding the least-cost method for manufacturing a given product to determining the most profitable use for a given resource, there are countless practical applications for linear programming models. This self-contained book and disk set provides everything you need to know to apply linear programming to real-world situations - how to prepare input, how to interpret output, what to do if the model will not solve, and how to make your results useful and reliable - while entrusting the hard core arithmetic to the user-friendly computer package provided on disk. Written in clear prose that stays away from the complex mathematics underlying the technique, Introduction to Practical Linear Programming contains:
