Summary: Redundancies and Excessive Prose Detract from High Quality
Comment: Suzanne Epp is an excellent writer and no one could accuse her of skimping on content. However there is such a thing as overkill. Certain sections badly need trimming and clarity: teaching from this book I spend a fair amount of time "boiling things down" to essential points which are often only implied or hidden among a proleration of examples. For example, entire sections are devoted to facets of predicate logic and arguments. This wouldn't prove redundant were it not for the fact that there is much duplication between the points mentioned in predicate logic and the points mentioned in propositional logic. I've seen less redundant and and more perspicuous presentations on logic in other texts. The homework problems for the large part seem a bit trivial. The reader again senses too much quantity of detail with little organizational clarity. Fewer and more substantive examples would prove helpful. The book seems ideal for a liberal arts college, there is plenty of text but much is mathematical style over substance. The reader, however, will at least be left with a clear conceptual understanding of salient topics in discrete math.
