Simulation with Arena w/ CD-Rom Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While this book does have some useful content from the couple chapters I have read, the material is overshadowed by a serious problem - this is almost not readable in the literal sense.
There is something about the small font size and presentation that makes reading the book tough on the eyes, even with a bright light. I read a lot and this is one of the worst presentations I have seen.The other students in the class who I talked with about this textbook also had the same comment. For a book that charges over $100, this is inexcusable.
Unless you want to wind up with a pair of glasses sooner than you think or get a stronger prescription than you have now, avoid this book.

The first edition of this book was the first text to be written on the Arena software, which is a very popular simulation modeling software. What makes this text the authoritative source on Arena is that it was written by the creators of Arena themselves.The new third edition follows in the tradition of the successful first and second editions in its tutorial style (via a sequence of carefully crafted examples) and an accessible writing style.The updates include thorough coverage of the new version of the Arena software (Arena 7.01), enhanced support for Excel and Access, and updated examples to reflect the new version of software.The CD-ROM that accompanies the book contains the Academic version of the Arena software.The software features new capabilities such as model documentation, enhanced plots, file reading and writing, printing and animation symbols.
