This book was a required textbook for my Operations Management and Information Systems course in an MBA program. The book reads well, the material is clearly explained and chapters are well-organized. In each chapter, the authors describe the use these techniques in real life cases in actual companies. There are a lot of problems and self-tests at the end of each chapter which help to learn the material in depth.
This is not the easiest subject for students, but this is an excellent books. The authors make important, relevant, yet complex concepts accessible to student by following an applied approach. Lots of great examples and supplements if you are an instructor.Thanks,Adam
This book is riddled with mistakes. I'm very shocked at just how may errors are in this textbook. This can be very frustrating for students who rely on the "facts" of this textbook to do their work and pass tests.
This was the textbook for my quantitative analysis class. Expensive, but by far, one of the best management science books I have read. I will be using this as a reference book for years.
Great purchase! Fast shipment! Thank you!
