Combinatorics on words, or finite sequences, is a field that grew from the disparate mathematics branches of group theory and probability. In recent times, it has gained recognition as an independent theory and has found substantial applications in computer science automata theory and linguistics. This volume is the first to present a thorough treatment of this theory and includes discussions of Thue's square free words, Van der Waerden's theorem, and Ramsey's theorem. This volume is an accessible text for undergraduate and graduate level students in mathematics and computer science as well as specialists in all branches of applied mathematics.

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2015
the book was in great shape... that being said i got it for my son who is going for his phd in applied math( he asked for the soft cover). he just about lost his silly mind when he saw the book so i guess thats a 5 star. I looked at it and it as number and letters and stuff an things.... greek to me.
