Discrete Mathematics for New Technology has been designed to cover
the core mathematics requirement for undergraduate computer science
students in the UK and the USA. This has been approached in a
comprehensive way whilst maintaining an easy to follow progression
from the basic mathematical concepts covered by the GCSE in the UK
and by high-school algebra in the USA, to the more sophisticated
mathematical concepts examined in the latter stages of the book.
The rigorous treatment of theory is punctuated by frequent use of
pertinent examples. This is then reinforced with exercises to allow
the reader to achieve a "feel" for the subject at hand. Hints and
solutions are provided for these brain-teasers at the end of the
book. Although aimed primarily at computer science students, the
structured development of the mathematics enables this text to be
used by undergraduate mathematicians, scientists and others who
require an understanding of discrete mathematics. The topics
covered include: logic and the nature of mathematical proof set
theory, relations and functions, matrices and systems of linear
equations, algebraic structures, Boolean algebras and a thorough
treatise on graph theory. The authors have extensive experience of
teaching undergraduate mathematics at colleges and universities in
the British and American systems. They have developed and taught
courses for a varied of non-specialists and have established
reputations for presenting rigorous mathematical concepts in a
manner which is accessible to this audience. Their current research
interests lie in the fields of algebra, topology and mathematics
education. Discrete Mathematics for New Technology is therefore a
rare thing; areadable, friendly textbook designed for
non-mathematicians, presenting material which is at the foundations
of mathematics itself. It is essential reading.
