Our Chosen Child by Judith Levy
George B. Dantzig was one of the most important creative minds of the last half-century. Having a selection of his work is a scholarly must, and anyone interested in the application of quantitative methods to the achievement of efficiency must be grateful. --Kenneth J. Arrow, Nobel Laureate, Stanford UniversityThis collection of papers not only represents a sample of the extraordinary contributions of George Dantzig but also chronicles the fundamental concepts of mathematical programming and operations research. Virtually all of today's work in optimization finds its origin in one or more of these papers. Beyond their historical importance for developing new tools and insights, these articles also demonstrate the elegance and clarity of Dantzig's style of exposition. Students and researchers in all mathematical science fields can learn from his example. --John R. Birge, Dean, Robert R. McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, Northwestern University
