Title: Absolutely HORRIBLE
Review: This is the worst textbook I've ever used in any class - high school or university. You basically need to already know Discrete Math in order to understand the material in the book. The examples aren't relevant to the exercises in the least way possible. Definitions are hard to find within the text, so if you're looking for a definition of a new term in the section, it's quicker to search online than rummage through useless pages of garbage (searching online would give better examples than the book, as well). At least in a typical text book, definitions are bolded and easy to find - in this book, they don't do this, let alone anything else, to help the reader easily find key words.The only reason I even open the book is to do the assigned exercises. Don't try to read the material from the book - you'll only confuse yourself. I rely on class notes and the internet to get the work done. Otherwise, this book is completely USELESS. I advise you to avoid it at all costs, if possible.
