    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Drawing on many years'experience of teaching discrete mathem atics to students of all levels, Anderson introduces such as pects as enumeration, graph theory and configurations or arr angements. Starting with an introduction to counting and rel ated problems, he moves on to the basic ideas of graph theor y with particular emphasis on trees and planar graphs. He de scribes the inclusion-exclusion principle followed by partit ions of sets which in turn leads to a study of Stirling and Bell numbers. Then follows a treatment of Hamiltonian cycles, Eulerian circuits in graphs, and Latin squares as well as proof of Hall's theorem. He concludes with the constructions of schedules and a brief introduction to block designs. Each chapter is backed by a number of examples, with straightforw ard applications of ideas and more challenging problems.

    Long description:

    Discrete mathematics has now established its place in most undergraduate
    mathematics courses. This textbook provides a concise, readable and
    accessible introduction to a number of topics in this area, such as
    enumeration, graph theory, Latin squares and designs. It is aimed at
    second-year undergraduate mathematics students, and provides them with
    many of the basic techniques, ideas and results. It contains many worked
    examples, and each chapter ends with a large number of exercises, with
    hints or solutions provided for most of them.
    As well as including standard topics such as binomial coefficients,
    recurrence, the inclusion-exclusion principle, trees, Hamiltonian and
    Eulerian graphs, Latin squares and finite projective planes, the text also
    includes material on the ménage problem, magic squares, Catalan and
    Stirling numbers, and tournament schedules.
