Publisher's Synopsis
Management Science: An Anthology, consists of three volumes. It is a collection of seminal papers which have been published over the years in the field of Management Science and Operational Research and which have contributed to the development and historical perspective of the subject. It is intended to serve the needs of academics (teachers, research workers and students) and to whet the curiosity of practitioners. The subject area is vast and many thousands of papers have been scanned before the final selection for the three volumes was made. Alas, it has not been possible to cover chapters from books and research reports, but the anthology presented in these volumes should provide academics and practitioners with a flavour of the diversity and richness of many topics that management science encompasses.
