Title: Terrible textbook for a difficult subject.
Review: First I would like to add I do not own this book, but had to rent it for a class. This has got to be by far the worst textbook I have ever used. Not every key word is in bold like most textbooks have. Probably the worst is that there are not even definitions for some keywords, but examples which can throw a student off easily when trying to solve a problem; that is, if any example is provided. Some students may learn by looking at answers in the back of textbooks and reverse engineering other answers which is a technique for learning how to solve a problem by comparing problems and answers. It is not possible with this book as some sections for the proceeding problems do not give the answers. Best of luck if your teacher selects this. Google will be your best bet when seeking out an easy technique to solve any problem given by the book. Though, I as a student would not know of a better Discrete Mathematics book to use.
