Cliff Ragsdale is an innovator of the spreadsheet teaching revolution and is highly regarded in the field of management science. This new edition of Spreadsheet Modeling and Decision Analysis provides instruction in the most commonly used management science techniques and shows how these tools can be implemented using the most current version of Microsoft Excel for Windows. This text also focuses on developing both algebraic and spreadsheet modeling skills.
This book was required reading and use in my Engineering Management class, and it is based on Excel 2013, where we have Excel 365.
Nothing works the same. The examples do not follow the software anymore, and the book's use for understanding the material is reduced by 50% because you cannot work alongside the examples on your computer.
This might be a good book if it matched the software they have for the edition. I am not impressed that I spent this much on a book and the solver and do not work together.
