Review

"...will be most useful to researchers in combinatorics and related areas and to graduate students who want to learn about the most recent advances in the subject. The book provides a rich collection of exercises to aid the latter. It is to the credit of the authors and the editor that the book provides smooth and enjoyable reading at a very high level of exposition." Peter Orlik, SIAM Review

Book Description
