Favorite Operations Research books from OR-Exchange

A while ago I posted a question on OR-Exchange about some of the favorite Operations Research books that OR-Exchange members like to reference.  I was rather pleased with the response.  Of course there are great books on the subject of Operations Research.  The best part of OR-Exchange allows for the community to vote up the favorites.  A lot of these books are just plain good to have in your desk drawer or in your work study.  I have to admit that I have not read all of these books.  So this gives me a good excuse to go get them and perhaps offer up some reviews in the future.

So in order of OR-Exchange votes here are the favorite Operations Research books.

My husband left me last year after 25 years of marriage (he turned 50). It has been the most difficult year of my life, but full of lessons about myself and what life and marriage are all about. I am passionate about marriage and i didn't give up on my husband. resides in USA, I entered online in search of advice on how i can amend my marriage while i was at work. I saw so many positive reviews and nice feed back about how a Doctor called Robinson.buckler@yahoo.com has been wonderful with his work. I gave a shot to make contact with him via his Email and he assured me that my marriage will be peaceful and i believed in his words. 16 hours after he finished work, my husband came back home pleading and now, we are living peacefully again. Get in contact with him if you need any help. he is the real deal
