<p>The book <i>Soft Computing for Business Intelligence </i>is the remarkable output of a program based on the idea of joint trans-disciplinary research as supported by the Eureka Iberoamerica Network and the University of Oldenburg.</p><p>It contains twenty-seven papers allocated to three sections<i>: Soft Computing</i>, <i>Business Intelligence and Knowledge Discovery</i>, and <i>Knowledge Management and Decision Making</i>. Although the contents touch different domains they are similar in so far as they follow the BI principle "Observation and Analysis" while keeping a practical oriented theoretical eye on sound methodologies, like Fuzzy Logic, Compensatory Fuzzy Logic (CFL), Rough Sets and other soft computing elements.</p><p>The book tears down the traditional focus on business, and extends Business Intelligence techniques in an impressive way to a broad range of fields like medicine, environment, wind farming, social collaboration and interaction, car sharing and sustainability. </p>
