I'm looking for a book to learn Optimization, especially convex optimization. Boyd's book is a good one, but I couldn't understand it very well. Is there any other reference that explains things easily?
Here are a few selected titles, based on your wish to read basic books that explain details but do not complicate things too much:
Snyman, Practical Mathematical Optimization: http://www.springer.com/cn/book/9780387243481
Murty, Optimization for Decision Making: http://www.e-booksdirectory.com/details.php?ebook=10258
Bradley, Hax, Magnanti, Applied Mathematical Programming: http://www.e-booksdirectory.com/details.php?ebook=4357
Taha, Operations Research - free for download: http://makegeeks.blogspot.se/2013/12/operations-research-introduction-taha.html
Taha is fairly recent, while some of the others may be a bit outdated. I added them since being outdated could be just fine! :-)

Dear Mohanad,
You may also use the book of Prof. Arora as your starting point:

Best,
You had better downloaded Linus free textbooks from LINDO Systems HP.
Especially, LINGO text book includes many real samples and you can undestand those by free trial versions.
I published many papers using LINGO and JMP. Dowmload my parers fro RG.
