Having taught programming and computer science since 1963 and seen a myriad of textbooks, it is a real pleasure to get Dr G. M. Verschuuren's book on Excel Simulations. It is definitely the best "Learn by examples" computerbook I have ever seen.

Ole Hebin, Prof. Emeritus, University of Copenhagen and Northwestern
------------------------------------------------------
This book has an impressive breadth of examples from different areas. The writing is very straightforward and explanations seem very understandable for the beginning student. The companion website is an extraordinary resource!
