"This book is ... an encyclopedic overview of topics of and related to discrete mathematics in the broad sense, including many topics from computer science and software engineering. ... Each chapter has a summary and a list of review question which help the reader to recapitulate the contents ... . for each topic the reader is able to grasp the specific flavor and can move forward to more specific and advanced literature." (Dieter Riebesehl, zbMATH 1358.68004, 2017)
