Review
From the reviews:
"The book Scatter Search by Manuel Laguna and Rafael Marti ... provides an excellent introduction to this advanced optimization methodology. ... Different from most other books in this field, this book comes along with a rich variety of illustrative examples for various optimization problems ... . This significantly helps to gain an in-depth understanding of the methodology and enables readers to develop state-of-the-art implementations on their own. ... With this book, the authors have created an excellent reference both for researchers and practitioners." (Stephan Scheuerer, OR-News, Issue 23, March, 2005)
