This book offers a comprehensive presentation of optimization and
polyoptimization methods. The examples included are taken from
various domains: mechanics, electrical engineering, economy,
informatics, and automatic control, making the book especially
attractive. With the motto "from general abstraction to practical
examples," it presents the theory and applications of optimization
step by step, from the function of one variable and functions of
many variables with constraints, to infinite dimensional problems
(calculus of variations), a continuation of which are optimization
methods of dynamical systems, that is, dynamic programming and the
maximum principle, and finishing with polyoptimization methods. It
includes numerous practical examples, e.g., optimization of
hierarchical systems, optimization of time-delay systems, rocket
stabilization modeled by balancing a stick on a finger, a
simplified version of the journey to the moon, optimization of
hybrid systems and of the electrical long transmission line,
analytical determination of extremal errors in dynamical systems of
the rth order, multicriteria optimization with safety margins (the
skeleton method), and ending with a dynamic model of bicycle. The
book is aimed at readers who wish to study modern optimization
methods, from problem formulation and proofs to practical
applications illustrated by inspiring concrete examples.

Originally produced for ITV's South Bank Show, this film captures a
live performance by the London Sinfonietta of Henryk Gorecki's
Symphony No. 3, also known as the Symphony of Sorrowful Songs. Tony
Palmer directs the film, which also includes interviews with the
composer and footage of him visiting Auschwitz.
