Review: A very gentle first course in graph theory - This is about as intro of a course to Graph theory that you can find. Even if you know graph theory this actually has alot of coverage I have not seen in many texts. It is more extensive of treatment than you will find in a discrete math textbook. This has both some of the standard metaphors employed in texts and a few very good orginal metaphors. Where this book really shines is the author really drives home how to transform applied problems into graph theory. Most books show you applied problems, but fail to inspire and give the student the ability to explore their own problems into graphs. This book does that every chapter. The student is eased into concepts, and then more depth is added through examples and theorems. There are excellent applied problems and examples. Chartland's other book on graph theory has great examples and applications, however, this book has fewer but provides better instruction. This is a great self-study, especially if you had graph theory in another textbook and want more but are not ready for a purely proof/theorem approach taken by alot of the more rigorous texts.
Review: One of my favorite classes ever - I taught a special topics undergraduate course from this book, to a class of about 10 students. One of my favorite classes ever, in a 20+ year career. The authors did a lovely job of organizing topics into chapters that form a thorough but readable sampler. There are excellent exercises also to explore each topic. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to learn about Graph Theory through self-study, or to other instructors wanting a sound introductory textbook. I am so glad it is available from Dover too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice introduction to graph theory
*by J***N on June 16, 2013*

I will offer a brief review from the perspective of an instructor. I like this text quite a bit. It covers all the fundamental topics one would expect to see in an intro graph theory course. In fact, there is more than enough material to fit in one semester. Also, there are enough challenging excursions for interested and/or talented students. The exercises follow the typical order, that being relatively easy to more difficult. Overall, a good book with a clear and precise exposition.
