Abstract

In Book Reviews, we review an extensive and diverse range of books. They cover theory and applications in operations research, statistics, management science, econometrics, mathematics, computers, and information systems. In addition, we include books in other fields that emphasize technical applications. The editor will be pleased to receive an email from those willing to review a book, with an indication of specific areas of interest. If you are aware of a specific book that you would like to review, or that you think should be reviewed, please contact the editor. The following books are reviewed in this issue of Interfaces, 42(4), July–August 2012: Optimal Strategies in Sports Economics and Management, Sergiy Butenko, Jaime Gil-Lafuente, and Panos M. Pardalos, eds.; Foundations of Location Analysis, H. A. Eiselt and Vladimir Marianov, eds; Metaheuristics: From Design to Implementation, El-Ghazali Talbi; Data Mining: Concepts, Methods and Applications in Management and Engineering Design, Yong Yin, Ikou Kaku, Jiafu Tang, and Jian-Ming Zhu.
