got it for an algorithm class back when I was in college and now it's a resource book that I go back to as a useful guide.

Excellent book, but do NOT buy the Kindle edition!

This review is for the Kindle edition of "Algorithm Design" by Kleinberg and Tardos Algorithm Design

This book is wonderfully organized. I used it for an Algorithms course and it's just very well laid out, with a nice progression of topics. If you want to gain a good "overall" picture of algorithms, this book is perfect. As with any kind of math, if you want to go much deeper, you'll need specialized textbooks for particular topics, but for a reasonably complete, holistic, one-semester course, you'll love this book. I should also point out that there are several well-crafted exercises in each chapter to cement your understanding and give your grey matter a good workout!

IMPORTANT: The Kindle edition of this book is a horribly travesty to the non-digital edition. The typesetting is crude (Amazon, you can do way better!), important figures/diagrams are scaled to tiny sizes, and formulas just plain look incorrect. My best guess is that this was re-typeset by hand, by a non-technical person using MS Word, so they simply messed it up badly. Personally, I am kicking myself for having paid nearly $90 for this, when I could've bought the "real" textbook for $110.

I was sorely tempted to give it a one-star review, but the content is top-notch, brilliantly put-together and an asset to any student of Computer Science. To recap: DO NOT BUY THE KINDLE EDITION!

If you do buy the Kindle edition after reading this review, you'll only have yourself to blame.

Good book but selling the Indian subcontinent version for higher price

Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2021

Verified Purchase

This book is an excellent resource for a wide range of algorithms. It explains the fundamentals of algorithms and its time complexity in detail. Also, found that the seller is using Indian SubContinent version of the book for US order price. I've receieved the book published by Dorling Kindersley(India) pvt ltd., Noida UP, licensee of Pearson Education in South Asia.

Selling Indian subcontinent edition at US dollar pricing

Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2020

Verified Purchase

The book is one of the best books you can buy on Algorithms. However I do have a problem with the seller (BestStore4Books). The paper quality of the book I received is horrible. The reason is that the seller is taking Indian prints (which cost few hundred rupees) and he is re-selling in the US market for considerable profit. The problem is that the print quality is totally inferior to the books which are printed in the US. The seller is using this corrupt practice to make money.

Indian continent books are not supposed to be sold in US market but this seller (BestStore4Books) is doing it.

Incredible resource

Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2021

Verified Purchase

This was the required text for my course in algorithm analysis. We covered the first 8 chapters but I was intrigued the whole way through by the way in which the authors present the content. It is easy to digest, therefore quite hard to get lost and there are many interesting ideas in each section. I will probably finish the rest of the text this summer after classes end.

Kindle edition is defective

Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2009

Verified Purchase

Well, the content of the book is great: I will give 4 stars to it. But the kindle edition I bought is annoying in that it does not display a lot of symbols correctly. For examle belongs to, subset, superset, omega and a host of others are shown as a question mark. You either have to guess the symbol based on the context or refer to another book to find out what it is. Because of this the usability of the book is so low, I have to give a single star. I wish there was another way to publicize this problem without bringing the book ranking down. This is a major flaw in kindle edition that Amazon has to correct urgently.

ISBN 9788131703106 is the "international edition"

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2013

Verified Purchase

Specifically with regard to ISBN 9788131703106, which is an edition printed in Asia / India, the physical quality of the book is substandard relative to most modern paperbacks.

I initially thought that I had received a counterfeit copy of the book, but this was my introduction to "international edition" textbooks.

I bought a new, shrink-wrapped copy of this. The text of almost every page runs right into the binding, which makes it difficult to read. The printing on some pages is very crooked. A few pages seem to have been printed on dirty or slightly wrinkled paper. The second page of the book, "About the Authors," is glued for the first half inch to the page in front of it, covering up about the first four letters of each line of text. There is no copyright page. It is not on acid-free paper.

On the positive side, most pages are 100% readable if you jamb your fingers firmly into the binding to push the pages apart. So it may be a bargain if you don't mind doing that. Some of these imperfections are incidental in nature, and I don't know whether my copy is one of the better ones or one of the worse ones.

I have not yet read the book, so read other reviews and ratings for that aspect. It looks like a long, dense read, but well written. There are many diagrams and some code samples throughout.

I don't know if other editions have any color, but this one is only black-and-white. There does not appear to be anything needing color. Gray shading in the diagrams is perfectly legible.

Some sellers mention that this is the "international edition" but others don't. So I recommend checking the ISBN of whatever edition you consider and finding out where it was printed.

The best book for learning algorithm design.

Reviewed in Canada on December 30, 2020

Verified Purchase

Excellent quality and excellent delivery! This book helps students and practitioners develop and grasp the thinking and reasoning of algorithms design, not just the specific procedures of different algorithms. I love and enjoy reading this book so much! As far as I am concerned, this is the best book for learning algorithms and their design.

Great and helpful

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 25, 2016

Verified Purchase

I use it to get deeper into algorithms.
It seems to be great and helpful, having good explanations, both textual and visual.
There's no reason I should give it less than 5 stars.

One addition would be nice though: to have answers for all exercises.
Now only some exercises have answers, thus making it harder to know if what I did was right.

Nevertheless, it's a great piece of work.

Poor design from Pearson

Reviewed in Germany on April 15, 2023

Verified Purchase

The delivery and quality of the book are good but it really bothers me that there is 6cm of free space in 95% of the pages, you could easily re-distribute the content to use that space and save at least 100 pages. Really poor design from Pearson
