Because of the sophistication of this method, the authors of books really need to hand out practical codes in Fortran, C or whatever.
Otherwise in my humble estimation they remain virtually worthless (to me).

A practical GA package for those who are comfortable with Excel is Generator, which is described at http://www.nli-ltd.com/products/genetic_algorithms/main.htm. A nearly full-function demo version is downloadable from that site. There's no book written about Generator, but no book is needed: it's really easy to use. It works with binary, integer, real numbers and permutations. There is a good manual that downloads with the software.
