About this title

Review

From the reviews:

"Shimon Even was ... considered a superb teacher that had great influence on his listeners and students. Overall, the book is a very fitting tribute to the legacy of Shimon Even. ... The editors attempted to a wide range of research contribution in the first part of the book accessible to a wide range of researchers by using both experts and nonexperts as reviewers. They succeeded in this attempt. The papers are accessible to anybody with some background in theoretical computer science." (Burkhard Englert, Computing Reviews, December, 2006)
