Discrete Mathematical Structures, Sixth Edition, offers a clear and concise presentation of the fundamental concepts of discrete mathematics. Ideal for a one-semester introductory course, this text contains more genuine computer science applications than any other text in the field. This book is written at an appropriate level for a wide variety of majors and non-majors, and assumes a college algebra course as a prerequisite.

This book sucks. I don't know why colleges and universities use crappy books more often than not. Despite its title, the book doesn't actually bother explaining what the heck is discrete mathematical structures - how it came about, why it is important, what is it used for... It just dives into topics in a confusing manner. The questions asked are sometimes unrelated to the subject material and the answers given at the back at sometimes wrong. What's the point of reading a book and then having to research other books to find out what this book is trying to say and double-checking its answers?
