Auflage 2
KEY BENEFITS: This book fills a need for a thorough introduction to graph theory that features both the understanding and writing of proofs about graphs. Verification that algorithms work is emphasized more than their complexity. KEY TOPIC: An effective use of examples, and huge number of interesting exercises, demonstrate the topics of trees and distance, matchings and factors, connectivity and paths, graph coloring, edges and cycles, and planar graphs. MARKET: For those who need to learn to make coherent arguments in the fields of mathematics and computer science.
