5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, 13 Jan 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: An Introduction to Genetic Algorithms for Scientists and Engineers (Hardcover)

An excellent introduction to the subject, even if your maths is a bit rusty. The book takes an engineering approach and seems to be designed to get you quickly to the point where you can solve your own problems. This makes the examples a bit narrow though. Supplying code in C, PASCAL, FORTRAN and BASIC was a nice touch.
