Review text

This excellent book covers issues that are based on algebraic structures that have a finite number of elements. First, the well-known combinatorial counting methods are presented. A thorough study of groups and fields is then used to tackle more sophisticated problems, such as questions of the coding theory and the enumeration of colorings via the Burnside lemma. The final chapter develops a large part of graph theory on the basis of the ``garbage problem. In each chapter the reader finds useful exercises including their solutions.
