Product Description
Discrete Mathematics, by Washburn, Marlowe, and Ryan, is now available for your students. This new textbook excels at integrating the topics that make up a discrete mathematics course, creating a cohesive presentation for your students. Discrete Mathematics combines classic, historical material and cutting-edge computer science applications in a clear, high-quality format. The exercise sets, including basic exercises, advanced exercises, and computer exercises, are designed to allow your students to master what they have learned before moving on to more difficult material. With its highly flexible organization, and unique grade of difficulty, Discrete Mathematics successfully fits either the freshman-sophomore course or a more advanced junior-senior course, and is accessible to both computer scientists and mathematicians.

Just the place for a Snark! March 1, 2005

'Discrete mathematics is the study of those things left over after you take away limits, convergence, differentiation, and other fun stuff' is the way many texts begin. But this book uses Lewis Carroll and guides you through set theory, history of mathematics, graph theory, things Boolean, combinatorics and models on computation so that, by the end, you have a solid grounding in discrete mathematics. The Lewis Carroll is not an artifact but the form on which the text is built. So if you are in the business of tricking undergraduates into an unnderstanding of mathematical principles before they realize it, this is your guide.
