Title: Not for the weak!
Review: This was assigned for my Computer Modeling class after a hiatus away from classes and advanced math. Talk about a shell shock!This is a book of theory, and treats itself as such. You'll see pages upon pages of formulas, abstract designs, and altogether nasty proofs. A strong background in math and probability is a must.This book is old, and few would consider a Computer Science book written in the 1970's to ber of much value today. True, some of the more modern advances are not here, but the classical methods are done and explained so well that's there's still much to gain by reading it.
