The book has many important features which make it suitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate students in various branches of engineering and general and applied sciences. The important topics interrelating Mathematics & Computer Science are also covered briefly. The book is useful to readers with a wide range of backgrounds including Mathematics, Computer Science/Computer Applications and Operational Research. While dealing with theorems and algorithms, emphasis is laid on constructions which consist of formal proofs, examples with applications. Uptill, there is scarcity of books in the open literature which cover all the things including most importantly various algorithms and applications with examples.
From the reviews:
"In Graph Theory with Algorithms and its Applications, Santanu Saha Ray intends to provide a course text for students in computer science, applied mathematics and operations research. ... Overall I think Graph Theory with Algorithms and its Applications could serve as an excellent reference and contains some interesting applications. The chapters are separate enough that it could be used as a starting point for several independent explorations on various topics in the field of graph theory." (Ellen Ziliak, MAA Reviews, January, 2014)
"The book is written in a very readable and exact style. All chapters are accompanied with necessary amount of examples, figures and there are also exercises at the end of each chapter. Everything is presented in a classical style using terms and notation commonly used in Graph theory. ... It is suitable for students of technical universities (regular Math courses) or for more specialized students of Math (initial course of Graph Theory)."
