Title: Expensive Paperweight
Product review: Like many reviewers, I too had to buy this book for a cs class. It is one of the most worthless books I've ever owned. The treatment of the material was flimsy at best. A math textbook usually is replete with many examples, but this one leaves most of the examples as homework exercises. Most of the examples are easy, but the homework exercises are cryptic and difficult. It would have been helpful to include some difficult problems in the examples as well. Unless you have a very good instructor to give adequate examples, I would stay away from this book or look for supplemental material.
