Southern ComfortSouthern Comfort

Atlanta homicide detective Patrick 'Tick' Kelly turned his back on the world the day his wife and children were murdered. Abandoning his city and his career, he holed up in a beach house on Mango Key, Florida, and drowned his grief in Jack Daniels. Now sober and a bestselling author, Tick would gladly stay a recluse forever if his brother Pete didn't keep trying to drag him back to the land of the living. After years of sacrificing her personal life in favour of her DEA job, special agent Kate Rush resigned and moved back to her native Miami. But the unofficial assignment that has just come her way is too intriguing to pass up.

Linear Programming (Modern Birkhäuser Classics)Linear Programming (Modern Birkhäuser Classics)

To this reviewer's knowledge, this is the first book accessible to the upper division undergraduate or beginning graduate student that surveys linear programming from the Simplex Method via the Ellipsoid algorithm to Karmarkar's algorithm. Moreover, its point of view is algorithmic and thus it provides both a history and a case history of work in complexity theory.

Rapid CalculationsRapid Calculations

This little book is offered as the experience of one who has successfully taught many pupils, who knows their capacities and the kind of tasks they are likely to have subsequently to do. It is a serious effort to make this humdrum, ordinary, but very useful subject more useful by speeding up the work without sacrificing accuracy, and as such it deserves the attention of a wide circle of readers, and especially of teachers.
