McGraw-Hill Education (ISE Editions) Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications

Lots of useful information

my son loved it!

This book is very thorough in covering areas of discrete mathematics that apply to the field. I would call this book a "survey". Like a good introduction to Calculus, it covers the topic; and, similarly, it is not detailed specifically. The warning I would give to students using this book is: it's brief. The first two sections of the first chapter are an entire semester in logic! So, you will need to read this book very carefully and seriously consider supplemental materials in areas that you're weak and/ or inexperienced.

Great book!

I had this book for a discrete math class about 10 years ago. I'm glad I held onto it. It's been great for a proofs class which uses a completely indecipherable text (A Transition to Advanced Mathematics). The text has answers for odd problems. The solution manual for the 4th Edition is still out there, I got a copy a month ago thru Amazon. The solutions are fully answered and mostly in English. A great combo if you're in a proofs/intro to higher math class.
