About this title

Synopsis:

All introductory, undergraduate level topics are covered in this text in a traditional order. Students will find the material easier to understand and follow over the main competitors. The second edition includes more of a managerial decision flavor through the use of mini-cases, emphasis on formulation (rather than solution), more use of computer solutions, and the inclusion of "managerial dialogue" to help illustrate the business implication of the analysis.
