Synopsis

This comprehensive introduction to management science uses the DOS-based spreadsheets Lotus 1-2-3 and Quattro Pro to explain quantitive techniques from optimization to decisions analysis and risk analysis. The optimization modelling in chapters 2 through 12 uses the What's Best! solver software. Because both students and managers are more familiar with spreadsheets than with algebraic notation, the text allows any student with a beginner's ability to use a spreadsheet to focus on model building and practical problem solving while improving their proficiency with spreadsheets.
