Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book gives on 280 pages a broad overview of nonlinear optimization. … The presented optimization approaches are compared with each other by means of several examples with up to 200 variables. … the introduction of the different techniques is written in a very comprehensible way. … each section contains exercises to verify and deepen the understanding of the material." (Andrea Walther, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1167, 2009)
