This book is written at an appropriate level for a wide variety of majors and non-majors, and assumes a college algebra course as a prerequisite.

Combining a careful selection of topics with coverage of theirgenuineapplications in computer science, this book, more than any other in this field, is clearly and concisely written, presenting the basic ideas of discrete mathematical ...

For one/two-term, freshman/sophomore-level courses in Discrete Mathematics. More than any other book in the field, this text ties together discrete topics with a theme.

This text has been designed as a complete introduction to discrete mathematics, primarily for computer science majors in either a one or two semester course.

Solutions and reasoning for in-text practice problems The Student Solutions Manual to accompany Contemporary Linear Algebra provides solutions to the practice problems in the text.

Without sacrificing mathematical precision, Anton and Busby focus on the aspects of linear algebra that are most likely to have practical value to the student while not compromising the intrinsic mathematical form of the subject.
