The mathematics of tournament design are surprisingly subtle, and
this book, an extensively revised version of Ellis Horwood's
popular Combinatorial Designs: Construction Methods, provides a
thorough introduction. It includes a new chapter on league
schedules, which discusses round robin tournaments, venue
sequences, and carry-over effects. It also discusses balanced
tournament designs, double schedules, and bridge and whist
tournament design. Readable and authoritative, the book emphasizes
throughout the historical development of the material and includes
numerous examples and exercises giving detailed constructions.
