description: Already an international bestseller, with the release of this greatly enhanced second edition, Graph Theory and Its Applications is now an even better choice as a textbook for a variety of courses -- a textbook that will continue to serve your students as a reference for years to come.The superior explanations, broad coverage, and abundance of illustrations and exercises that positioned this as the premier graph theory text remain, but are now augmented by a broad range of improvements. Nearly 200 pages have been added for this edition, including nine new sections and hundreds of new exercises, mostly non-routine. What else is new? New chapters on measurement and analytic graph theory   Supplementary exercises in each chapter - ideal for reinforcing, reviewing, and testing.  Solutions and hints, often illustrated with figures, to selected exercises - nearly 50 pages worth  Reorganization and extensive revisions in more than half of the existing chapters for smoother flow of the exposition  Foreshadowing - the first three chapters now preview a number of concepts, mostly via the exercises, to pique the interest of readerGross and Yellen take a comprehensive approach to graph theory that integrates careful exposition of classical developments with emerging methods, models, and practical needs. Their unparalleled treatment provides a text ideal for a two-semester course and a variety of one-semester classes, from an introductory one-semester course to courses slanted toward classical graph theory, operations research, data structures and algorithms, or algebra and topology.
