Reviews
"This volume deserves a prominent role not only as a textbook, but also as a desk reference for anyone who must cope with noisy data..." (Computing Reviews.com, January 6, 2006)

"...well written and accessible to a wide audience...a welcome addition to the control and optimization community." (IEEE Control Systems Magazine, June 2005)

"...a step toward learning more about optimization techniques that often are not part of a statistician's training." (Journal of the American Statistical Association, December 2004)

"...provides easy access to a very broad, but related, collection of topics..." (Short Book Reviews, August 2004)

"Rather than simply present various stochastic search and optimization algorithms as a collection of distinct techniques, the book compares and contrasts the algorithms within a broader context of stochastic methods." (Technometrics, August 2004, Vol. 46, No. 3)

Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
