About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The present volume actually surveys packing and covering problems in Euclidean space and close cousins. … Bezdek … surveys the state of the art, best results, and outstanding conjectures for a host of problems. … Summing Up: Recommended. Academic audiences, upper-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty.” (D. V. Feldman, Choice, Vol. 48 (5), January, 2011)
“The book is intended for graduate students interested in discrete geometry. The book provides a road map to the state-of-the-art of several topics in discrete geometry. It can also serve as a textbook for a graduate level course or a seminar. Additionally, the book is extremely current, with many references to as late as 2009–2010 publications.” (Alex Bogomolny, The Mathematical Association of America, August, 2010)
“This very interesting monograph contains a selection of topics in discrete geometry, mainly those on which the author and his collaborators have worked. … The many conjectures and problems to be found throughout the text will serve as an inspiration to many discrete geometers.” (Konrad Swanepoel, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1207, 2011)
