Discrete Mathematics and its Applications, Global Edition 7th edition

3.2 3.2 out of 5 stars 25 ratings

We are pleased to present this Global Edition which has been developed specifically to meet the needs of international students of discrete mathematics. In addition to great depth in key areas and a broad range of real-world applications across multiple disciplines, we have added new material to make the content more relevant and improve learning outcomes for the international student. This Global Edition includes: • An entire new chapter on Algebraic Structures and Coding Theory • New and expanded sections within chapters covering Foundations, Basic Structures, and Advanced Counting Techniques • Special online only chapters on Boolean Algebra and Modeling Computation • New and revised problems for the international student integrating alternative methods and solutions This Global Edition has been adapted to meet the needs of courses outside of the United States and does not align with the instructor and student resources available with the US edition.

This is NOT the seventh edition of the book

This is NOT the seventh edition of the book
Despite what the cover says, the paperback version of the book is NOT the seventh edition of the book. It is in fact, according to the preface, the sixth edition. The text may be close enough to the seventh edition that you could get away with it if that was your only purpose in buying it, but if your professor assigns exercises from the book by number, then the problem numbers will not match. I found this out the hard way by purchasing the book based on false advertising.

    It's the exact same book but with a Chinese cover. You can also easily find the PDF online.

    This is not the same book as what was advertised. The seller fails to state that this is the "Special Indian Edition", which roughly equates to the Sections not matching up to the actual book that is generally assigned in University Courses. Unfortunately, it took me half a semester of extreme struggle to realize this book was holding me back because I was studying completely separate Sections from those who acquired the correct book. This book could be usable to someone that already has a grasp of Discrete Math, but it would do more harm than good if you are trying to learn as it is very dry reading, and is a 'wall of text'. I would not recommend this copy.

    This book is... Not that bad. In fact it is pretty decent? I mean I was fully ready to use this thing as just a workbook but reading it has actually been pretty interesting. Maybe people don't like it cause it gives a bunch of background information about things? I honestly don't know, maybe it's just that it's more academics than engineering focused and a lot of people who use it will be engineers. So if you are an engineer reading this keep that in mind!

    Ironically, I couldn't actually use this as a good workbook because I do not believe the version I have has (the odd) (or even) answers in the back. It was the paper version I guess? So watch out for that; the version I bought was considerably cheaper so I don't mind terribly.

    Nearly ¼ of the price retail. Great buy for students.

    The Hardcover and the Loose leaf versions are the 8th Edition, but the paperback is the Global Edition of the 7th Edition. This will hopefully get fixed, and you won't order the incorrect book.

    Yikes! I purchased this textbook as a required text for my class, and have come to find out that there are TONS of sections missing from the book including no Chapter 3 whatsoever! Now I have to find another version of the textbook to use for class. Definitely poor publishing and I'm glad I bought it here for $2 instead of paying a lot for this piss-poor textbook.

    1.0 out of 5 stars A big mixture of everything and nearly nothing
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 23, 2013
    Where is the red thread in this book?
    A lot of themes from math and computer-science of many different kinds is put into this book.
    The themes are of very different levels from plain highschool level simple math to very complicated and specialized stuff normally only studied by researchers. Some of the areäs are of general interest and importance, others are of no importances to the others than specialists.
    Many of the themes is absolutely best understood by using drawings and illustartions, but they are so much missing in the book.
    The reader is also missng clear samples of implementations of most of the areas in the book. It is just left to the reader to imagine how the things can be used.
    I have read many other much shorter and much better books explaining the things of general interest dealed with in this book.
    My advice: find another textbook

    It's not bad, but if you aren't obligated to buy it by your school, definitely take a look at Susanna S. Epp's book by the same name.

    Really like the layout of the book (specifically, the use of sub headings in the margins on the left). Makes navigating around the pages easier.
