abstract = "This book is loaded with examples in which computer
scientists and engineers have used evolutionary
computation programs that mimic natural evolution to
solve real problems. They aren't abstract,
mathematically intensive papers, but accounts of
solving important problems, including tips from the
authors on how to avoid common pitfalls, maximize the
effectiveness and efficiency of the search process, and
many other practical suggestions. Some of the authors
have already won HUMIES Human Competitive Results
Awards for the work described in this book. I highly
recommend it as a highly concentrated source of good
problem-solving approaches that are applicable to many
real-world problems.
