This rigorous mathematical study of web graphs and graph theory as it pertains to the Internet is the first of its kind, and introduces the world to the concept of Internet mathematics. Bonato (Dalhousie U.) developed this textbook from the groundbreaking graduate course he has taught for the last few years, and shows how mathematical models can be applied to such web-based entities as search engines, viruses and networks. This book is the latest entry in the American Mathematical Society's Graduate Studies in Mathematics series. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
