"Barvinok demonstrates that simplicity, intuitive appeal, and the
universality of applications make teaching (and learning) convexity a
gratifying experience. The prerequisites are minimal amounts of
linear algebra, analysis, and elementary topology, plus basic
computational skills. Portions of the book could be used by advanced
undergraduates. As a whole, it is designed for graduate students
interested in mathematical methods, computer science, electrical
engineering, and operations research. The book will also be of
interest to research mathematicians, who will find some results that
are recent, some that are new, and many known results that are
discussed from a new perspective."--BOOK JACKET.
