In 1963 Oystein Ore wrote this classic volume, which was published in the New Mathematical Library Series. This elegant book has provided students and teachers with an excellent introduction to the field of graph theory for close to thirty years. Robin Wilson's revision adds strength to the book by updating the terminology and notation, bringing them in line with contemporary usage. Wilson has added new material on interval graphs, the traveling salesman problem, bracing frameworks, shortest route problems, and coloring maps on surfaces. Most of the diagrams in the book have been redrawn.

A Good Start on Graph Theory Applications,
By
This review is from: Graphs and their Uses (Anneli Lax New Mathematical Library) (Paperback)
The book gives a good introduction for students interested in applications of graph theory. It is very clear, and guides you trough a number of very interesting examples. To give an hand on experience on graphs. There are exercise at the end of the chapter to test what you learned. The first edition is a little old and therefor the terminology is not realy up to date.
