Just what you need - By: , 06 Feb 2004
Schaum's publications are not for mathematicians: they are for those of us who struggle a bit. However I suspect that many of those who are now experts achieved their understanding with the help of these books.

Only the important information is given, with no regard for mathematical elegance, but with much regard for the needs of a learner. The exercises & especiallly the worked examples, enable you to make sense of it alll. Even the hilarious typos give you a sense of intellectual superiority & boost your confidence.

This title is an introduction, for the post A level student to discrete maths: set theory, logic etc. It could also help those university students who need to learn these subjects but whose mathematical training in school was weak.


beware, this book has lots of mistakes - By: , 05 Dec 2001
Although the book covers a vast majority of the items needed for Computer science, you need to be aware that there are many typo mistakes within the book that may lead you to not grasp the correct understanding. For a book such as this it seems the proof reading fell very short of what was needed. Its still a good introduction though.
Great for University students - By: , 27 Sep 2001
This book was amazing. I am currently in my first year at bradford university studying computer science.There are some elements of the course that involve a level of mathematics that was beyond me,until i read the opening few chapters of this book. Understanding graphs & sets has never been easier.
