From the reviews:
"This book summarizes recent developments in the rapidly growing field of patterns in permutations and words. . The book is a compendium of a great number of recent papers about patterns in permutations and words. . The book is a good summary of the current state of the subject. The bibliography at the end of the book is especially comprehensive, and very useful for the reader who wants to learn more about particular topics." (Sergi Elizalde, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2013)
"The book presents the state of the art of 'patterns in permutations and words', a topic that has recently attracted considerable interest among researchers in various fields of mathematics and computer science, but also in theoretical physics and computational biology. It contains a list of 816 references and is well suited as a handbook for the methods and results of this area." (K. Auinger, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 170 (2), May, 2013)
"The monograph provides probably a first comprehensive overview of a vivid area of pattern observations, forming itself a common tool for various fields of mathematics. Containing a list of 816 references to recent and older literature, it has a good chance to become a handbook and a useful guide to results and techniques in the area." (Anton Cerny, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1257, 2013)More details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
