These sequences exhibit some surprising properties that make them a fascinating subject for research in combinatorial analysis. This 1995 book on the subject by two of its leading researchers will be an important resource for students and professionals in combinatorics, computational geometry and related fields.
Review of the hardback: 'This is a very well written and readable book suitable as a textbook for upper undergraduate and junior graduate students. It is entirely selfcontained.' European Mathematical Society Newsletter
