Riassunto

The book is aimed at students who have a working knowledge of linear algebra and partial differentiation but has had no previous exposure to optimization. Mathematics instructors will be comfortable with the mathematical approach which deemphasizes recipes and emphasizes underlying concepts. There are many exercises chosen to highlight the fundamental ideas.
