Reviews

An attractive and appealing introduction to the theory and applications of convex sets and functions. --American Mathematical Monthly The book has clearly been written with great care and attention to detail....The accessible nature of the book makes it a very good choice for undergraduate or graduate students. It would also be a nice book on which to base an undergraduate course on convexity. --Mathematical Reviews


This is a well-written introduction to convexity and to a variety of its applications. It is written in a clear style, reader-friendly, and with great care. This book, which requires only elementary prerequisites and provides many exercises, is well suited as a text for an introductory course on convexity and selected applications. Zentrallblatt for Mathematik, Band 835/96.
