Industry Reviews
"This is possibly one of the first books on behavioral OR and covers a wide array of relevant topics. ... The objective of illustrating 'behavior with models', 'behavior in models' and 'behavior beyond models' has clearly been achieved in this publication. This is a great reference for those who want to get familiarized with BOR." (Hans W. Ittmann, IFORS International Federation of Operational Research Societies, Vol. 10 (4), September, 2016)
