Book excerpt: Matroid theory is one of the deepest branches of combinatorics, and important to applications. Odd numbered chapters introduce mathematical results including many algorithms, which are then immediately applied in the even numbered chapters that follow. The application chapters contain the definitions of the engineering concepts to help mathematicians understand the applications. Matroid theory is, in a sense, a common generalization of graph theory, linear algebra, and geometry, new concepts are presented in the language of graphs, matrices, and geometrical objects wherever possible. The book is aimed at mathematicians and engineers.
