Discrete mathematics is quickly becoming one of the most important areas of mathematical research, with applications to cryptography, linear programming, coding theory and the theory of computing. This book is aimed at undergraduate mathematics and computer science students interested in developing a feeling for what mathematics is all about, where mathematics can be helpful, and what kinds of questions mathematicians work on. The authors discuss a number of selected results and methods of discrete mathematics, mostly from the areas of combinatorics and graph theory, with a little number theory, probability, and combinatorial geometry. Wherever possible, the authors use proofs and problem solving to help students understand the solutions to problems. In addition, there are numerous examples, figures and exercises spread throughout the book. Laszlo Lovasz is a Senior Researcher in the Theory Group at Microsoft Corporation. He is a recipient of the 1999 Wolf Prize andthe Godel Prize for the top paper in Computer Science. Jozsef Pelikan is Professor of Mathematics in the Department of Algebra and Number Theory at Eotvos Lorand University, Hungary. In 2002, he was elected Chairman of the Advisory Board of the International Mathematical Olympiad. Katalin Vesztergombi is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Washington.

From the reviews:
"The goal of this book is to use the introduction to discrete mathematics ... . Consequently, the authors ... take a lot of time to explain proof techniques and to motivate definitions and style. The language is very informal and easy to read. The level is always introductory which makes it possible to give a taste of a wide range of topics ... . There are a lot of exercises ... which makes it perfectly suitable for self-study." (T. Eisenkölbl, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 144 (2), 2005)

"The title of this book is quite apposite ... . The text is, in fact, based on introductory courses in discrete mathematics ... . the emphasis throughout the book is on finding efficient and imaginative ways to tackle problems and to develop general results. ... I would see it as a valuable resource of enrichment activities for students ... . is eminently suited for self-study (there are plenty of exercises and solutions) and can be warmly recommended for the school library."

"This book is an excellent introduction to a lot of problems of discrete mathematics. ... The authors discuss a number of selected results and methods, mostly from the areas of combinatorics and graph theory ... .

The authors use proofs and problem solving to help students understand the solutions to problems. In addition, there are numerous examples, figures and exercises spread throughout the book."

There are questions posed in the text and problems at the end of each chapter with solutions ... ." (The Bulletin of Mathematics Books, Issue 43, February, 2003)
