The Fascinating World of Graph Theoryshows its pedagogic value. Traditional courseware develops subject matter from the bottom on up, going from basic definitions to the more complex. [This book] is different, not starting with the simplest structures or algorithms but with interesting problems to be solved, puzzles that use graphs and networks. . . . [It is] readable and student-friendly'--more so than the typical math textbook.--New York Journal of Books
