About this title

Synopsis

Learn today's management science concepts and techniques from a leader in the field. The key purpose of this book is to provide a sound conceptual understanding of the role that management science plays in the decision-making process. AN INTRODUCTION TO MANAGEMENT SCIENCE is applications-oriented and continues to use the problem-scenario approach in which a problem is described in conjunction with the management science model that's introduced. The model is then solved to generate a solution and recommendation to management.

Review

"This adaptation does well in making the material much more international, and maintains the easy-to-follow approach that made the original US text such a successful book." --Julia Bennell, University of Southampton

"The newly incorporated material works well and helps to make this adaptation a better-written textbook for an international audience. As with the original, the strengths of the text lie in the significant array of methods covered, the easy to understand terminology, and the range of practice questions included." --David J. Newlands

"Based on my teaching experience, this textbook is excellent. The authors have done a marvellous job addressing all key topics in a very clear and coherent manner. The internationally diverse examples are a welcome addition, making it more friendly for my students; they no longer have to think about Management Science from a purely US perspective." --Yuan Ju, University of York
