<br/><br/> Covering major developments in modern graph theory, this textbook illustrates the advanced methods of the field.  Graph Theory is a very well-written book, now in its third edition and the recipient of the according evolutionary benefits. It succeeds dramatically in its aims, which Diestel gives as "[providing] a reliable first introduction to graph theory that can be used for personal study or as a course text, [and] a graduate text that offers some depth in selected areas." ... Even the pictures and drawings are nice. This is a hell of a good book! MAA, Reviews
