Reviews

'The contents of Kochman's book look promising to the would-be student, with five well-balanced chapters augmented by sections on further reading... Kochman's own imprint is unmistakable, with smatterings of the prodigious computations which have made him famous... The book is clearly self-contained for those of quantitative bent, and gives an uncompromising feel for the joys and sorrows ahead... beautifully produced, with diagrams recalling the more expansive 1960s, and students who attend Stan's lectures will surely find it an invaluable and encyclopaedic accompaniment'. Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society
