The authors are well-known, highly respected mathematicians with many years of practical experience. They have included all parts of the subject that are essential for all practical applications, plus some less directly applicable topics which are intellectually challenging and fun (combinatorics, Euler's V-E+F=2 theorem, and mathematical games). More than 200 worked examples, 1,500 problems, and 600 figures are included ER -
