From the reviews:“It introduces many numerical techniques, and a fairly advanced level of knowledge … . If today’s forest managers are to successfully manage the multiple values in a forest, they need to be aware of the decision support techniques that are available to them, and this book will certainly provide that information. Forestry students also need to know about these techniques if they wish to become successful forest managers … . It can therefore be recommended to all those involved in forest management.” (John Innes, International Forestry Review, Vol. 10 (4), 2008)
