"Containing 375 references, this book works best as an encyclopedia for researchers working in this topic. But it can also be effectively used by students who are interested in the combinatorics of set partitions and want to get a hand on researching them. a very useful reference for researchers of the enumerative side of set partitions." --Acta Sci. Math. (Szeged), 80, 2014 ". a comprehensive account of the history and current research in the combinatorics of pattern enumeration and pattern avoidance in set partitions. While it is aimed primarily at advanced undergraduate and graduate students in discrete mathematics with a focus on set partitions, its extensive bibliography, with 375 entries, and the variety of constructions and approaches used in the text make it a valuable reference for researchers in this field.
