“Discrete Calculus is an introductory text to combinatorics and finite calculus. … the work is well organized, and its massive size is also a strength since an interested reader will be able to find any related topic with the assistance of its comprehensive index including symbols, helpful appendixes, and markers indicating what information is most and least important. … Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers, and faculty.” (A. Misseldine, Choice, Vol. 54 (11), July, 2017)
