I took the graph theory course in a semester when Shimon Even lectured himself, using this book as the course's text book.

Of the lecturers in the Technion, Shimon Even is one of the best, and the book reflects this. The material is clearly presented in a very understandable matter, and requires no further references (beyond the required discrete math).

I'm still using material from the book (and course) in my work, as I prefer it over many other newer books.

It's sad that the book is out of print.
