"Not as good as the first edition" according to Kirk S. Johnson. I own both editions where I belive the 1st edition is better than their second. I don't particular like their new approach in teaching network modeling; it's non-intuitive. The first edition was a bit more 'logical' and easier to set up than the approach us. Flavio Cipparrone said Master Modeling employing Excel. This book focuses on several management science modeling problems and explains clearly how to implement them with Excel.Winston teaches you how to employ standards (colors, borders, etc) to make your spreadsheet more professional. You will learn much about . Very Pleased I am a business unit manager who frequently purchases books and software to maintain my level of competence in operations management, and I recently purchased the second edition of this book, copyright 2001.
