Book Synopsis
Convexity is a simple idea that manifests itself in a surprising variety of places. This work demonstrates that simplicity, intuitive appeal, and the universality of applications make teaching (and learning) convexity a gratifying experience. It demonstrates the power of a few simple unifying principles in a variety of pure and applied problems.

Table of Contents
Convex sets at large Faces and extreme points Convex sets in topological vector spaces Polarity, duality and linear programming Convex bodies and ellipsoids Faces of polytopes Lattices and convex bodies Lattice points and polyhedra Bibliography Index.
