This book provides a rigorous yet practical introduction to inventory management theory and applications. Muckstadt and Sapra explain core models for determining how much and when to order, covering both deterministic and stochastic demand environments. It explores policies such as (s, S) rules, base-stock systems, and continuous review models, with emphasis on balancing costs of holding, ordering, and shortages. Designed for students, researchers, and practitioners, it bridges the gap between analytical methods and real-world supply chain decision-making.
