From the reviews:"The book under review is devoted to the very interesting field of shape optimization problems, which received a lot of attention in the recent years. … many examples coming from applications are presented. The book also includes many exercises which, together with all the remarks, comments and presentations of problems still open, make the volume an excellent choice for anyone who wants to approach the fascinating field of shape optimization."
