I am currently taking a nonlinear optimization course and the textbook is Bertsekas's Nonlinear Programming (2nd edition). I think the book does a decent job, but I am a much more "hands-on" and visual learner so I'm looking for an additional book with worked examples, visuals explaining concepts, etc.

I've done some searching myself but I thought I'd get some recommendations from real mathematicians-- or people that share my learning disability. :)

Thanks!

    I like Boyd & Vandenberghe's Convex optimization. Generally I think convex analysis provides good intuition and is usually amenable to nice pictures.2012-10-09
