Abstract :
The last year has seen at least six books on data structures published and now Ivan Flores´ second edition joins the ranks. The book is markedly changed from the 1970 edition, with a substantial rearrangement of topics. Flores has included expanded material on lists and overflow, a new chapter on binary trees, and a cursory overview of complex files. He has dropped most of the material on hardware, access methods, and auxiliary memory. A new set of improved drawings enhances the book´s appearance as does the simplified notation and choice of type font. The problems at the end of each chapter have been replaced with extensive new sets.
