AN EXPLANATION OF CONSTRAINED OPTIMIZATION
FOR ECONOMISTS
In a constrained optimization problem, the decisionmaker wants to
select the “optimal” choice ֊ the one most valuable to him or her ֊ that
meets all of the constraints imposed by the problem. Such problems
are at the heart of modern economics, where the typical behavioral
postulate is that a decisionmaker behaves “rationally”; that, is, chooses
optimally from a set of constrained choices.
Most books on constrained optimization are technical and full of
jargon that makes it hard for the inexperienced reader to gain an holis-
tic understanding of the topic. Peter B. Morgan’s Explanation of Con-
strained Optimization for Economists solves this problem by emphasiz-
ing explanations, both written and visual, of the manner in which many
constrained optimization problems can be solved. Suitable as a text-
book or a reference for advanced undergraduate and graduate students
familiar with the basics of one-variable calculus and linear algebra, this
book is an accessible, user-friendly guide to this key concept.
PETER B. MORGAN is an associate professor in the Department of
Economics at the University at Buffalo.
