From the reviews of the third edition:"This third English edition is the translation of the fifth German edition ... . The collection is a reference work for business and economics students and practitioners." (Matthias Ehrgott, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1138 (16), 2008)From the reviews of the fourth edition:"The English translation of the book is the fourth revised and extended edition. The collection of formulas can been considered as a compendium of mathematics suitable for economics and business, but the first address relates to students of economics and business at universities, colleges and trade schools. . contains the most important formulas, statements and algorithms in this field of applied mathematics. In many cases the formulas . can be simplified a many circumstances, making the applications some more user-friendly." (Herbert S. Buscher, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1184, 2010)More details
