3.0 out of 5 stars
A decent graduate text on structural complexity,
By Todd Ebert (Long Beach California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Structural Complexity II (Theoretical Physics) (Hardcover)
This book and it's volume I counterpart have a place in complexity theory, but not as a first introduction to the subject (for which I had to use it for). For a first introduction, read Papadimitiou's excellent book. This book is more appropriate for researchers in the field.

3.0 out of 5 stars
A decent book for beginning researchers,
By Todd Ebert (Long Beach California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Structural Complexity I (Texts in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series) (Hardcover)
If you are learning about complexity theory for the first time, I recommend you read Papadimitriou's excellent book on the subject. One aspect about this book that I did not like is it's lack of combinatorial analysis, and its more generic, structural apporoach (i.e. focusing on robust sets of problems). Some may prefer this, but I think the combinatorial approach is more in line with mainstream computer science.
