520    "The fascinating world of graph theory goes back several 
       centuries and revolves around the study of graphs - 
       mathematical structures showing relations between objects.
       With applications in biology, computer science, 
       transportation science, and other areas, graph theory 
       encompasses some of the most beautiful formulas in 
       mathematics - and some of its most famous problems. For 
       example, what is the shortest route for a traveling 
       salesman seeking to visit a number of cities in one trip? 
       What is the least number of colors needed to fill in any 
       map so that neighboring regions are always colored 
       differently? Requiring readers to have a math background 
       only up to high school algebra, this book explores the 
       questions and puzzles that have been studied, and often 
       solved, through graph theory. In doing so, the book looks 
       at graph theory's development and the vibrant individuals 
       responsible for the field's growth."--Jacket.
