Description
A textbook for graduate and undergraduate courses introducing quantitative methods that play a role in business decision making. Anderson and Dennis Sweeney (both quantitative analysis, U of Cincinnati) and Thomas Williams (management science, Rochester Institute of Technology) assume only a course in algebra, providing the necessary background themselves in the chapter on probability and probability distribution. Their problem-scenario approach entails introducing a problem in each chapter to illustrate the procedure being described. They use the generally accepted notation, so students who go on to more advanced study will not need to learn it again. The eighth edition incorporates changes reflecting their teaching experience and developments in the field. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
