Reviews

From the reviews: The routing of vehicles with limited capacities for carrying goods or people is one of the major problems in transport logistics. ! The book is clearly structured and mostly well written. I can recommend it to any reader who wants to deepen his or her understanding of vehicle routing problems. ! the book is not only suited for experts in the area of vehicle routing but also for interested practitioners (especially the application-oriented chapters); and students. (T Hanne, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 60 (11), 2009)
