review text: The authors provide a comprehensive textbook about the cutting and packing problems. To be more specific, they consider in particular: knapsack problems, cutting stock problems, bin packing problems, feasibility problems, patterns of rectangular pieces, pallet loading problems and container loading problems. They provide both mathematical models and solution methods. Each chapter is followed by a number of exercises (with solutions), which makes the reading and understanding of the book much easier. The book is a good choice for students of mathematics, IT or engineering, researchers in the area of optimization as well as the preconditions dealing with problems of this kind.
