One of the best books for counting methods for beginneers

This book works great with begineers where they are not aware of solving problems in combinatorics from scratch, but just try to work formula based. The books nicely categorizes all types of counting methods.
A must read for somebody preparing for mathematical olympiad.

Master piece !

I purchased this book a long ago but didn't use it until last week thinking that it's a hi-fi book not suitable for mediocre students. I also tried 2 other famous book well renowned in India.
But what I learned the difference between a good book & a master piece is that good books explain complexity but this master piece actually reveals simplicity.
go for it if you want to lay a solid foundation in combinatorics.

Nice book

Its a nice book but the only thing that disappoints is that it does not comes with solution for the exercises in the book. This book is highly recommended for those who are praparing for the maths olympiad as it covers the combinatorics section thoroughly.

Best book on Combinatorics

This is undoubtably, one of the best books on combinatorics. I might look a bit obscure to beginners.

Excellent book in terms of level of competance

This is perhaps the best book for people who want deep & thorough understanding of combinatorics & graph theory. The exercises questions are deceptively tricky and teaches u a lot as u solve it. It can be well recommended for olympiad.
