Hi, Trevor,
This is outrageous. I would write the book editors, as this is an edited book with many authors. Also, it would be interesting to know who are the authors of the chapter, and whether there is any other plagiarism in the same chapter or in the book...
Best Regards,
Vlad

Location colleagues:
And greetings from my new home in the Mays Business School at Texas A&M!
I am writing to the location communities of SOLA and EWGLA listservs for advice. A location paper of mine has been plagiarized and I’m perplexed about what to do about it.
Here is a passage from my paper in *Annals of Operations Research* in 2003. Please take special note of the incorrect spellings of both “Evangelista” and “Cavalieri”:
*“Location science is an area of analytical study that can arguably (although there does exist some contention) be traced back to Pierre de Fermat, Evagelistica Torricelli (a student of Galileo), and Battista Cavallieri. They, independently, proposed (and some say solved) the basic Euclidean spatial median problem (otherwise known as the Weber problem; a name which only adds to the confusion) early in the seventeenth century.”*
Compare that to the passage below from the Introduction (written, so to speak, by the editors, Reza Farahani and Masoud Hekmatafar) of an edited Physica-Verlag Heidelberg book entitled *Facility Location: **Concepts, Models, Algorithms and Case Studies* in 2009:
*“Location science is an area of analytical study that can be traced back to Pierre de Fermat, Evagelistica Torricelli (a student of Galileo), and Battista Cavallieri. Each one independently proposed (and some say solved) the basic Euclidean spatial median problem early in the seventeenth century.”*
And there are other sentences, passages, and paragraphs that were stolen from my *ANOR* paper in the book. This passage was just the most blatant with the same exact two spelling errors.
Indeed, I have run this (and the other passages) by a professor who has expertise on plagiarism and he not only emphatically agreed with me that it is plagiarism…he wanted to use the text above as a prime example in an upcoming paper of his on the topic of what is plagiarism.
Thoughts? Anyone have experience with this?
Cheers,
Trevor
