The Scientific Publishing House PWN, known for its commitment to the high quality of scientific publications, offers readers a book that combines theory and practice. The author, an expert in the field of logistics process modeling, presents a rarely found approach to the subject in the literature, which consists of showing methods for solving specific tasks. This approach immediately introduces the reader to the heart of the analyzed problem and allows him to introduce his own modifications or improve the proposed solutions.

The book consists of seven thematically systematized chapters that step by step introduce the reader to the world of modeling and simulating logistics processes. Each chapter contains an overview of simulation models applicable in various fields of science and economic practice. For many cases, the results of studies from conducted simulation experiments are presented, and for more creative readers, selected cases are left open, while indicating the way to solve them. After each chapter, problems to think about are included, thanks to which the reader will be able to carry out his own research in this area.

The proposed use of FlexSim software combines many fields of science, including logistics, economics, management and computer science. The author has proposed a rarely found approach to the issue of modeling logistics processes in the literature, which consists of showing methods for solving specific tasks. This approach immediately introduces the reader to the heart of the analyzed problem and enables him to introduce his own modifications or improve the proposed solutions.
