★☆☆☆☆
Overpriced for the content inside.
This book costs as much if not more then Skiena's Algorithm Design Manual but pales in comparison to the content. Most of the problems in this book are just copied from LeetCode or GeeksForGeeks.
Many of the solutions are not even explain properly. There is very little visuals or mathematical proof so this book is mainly just a solution manual to a given set of problems all of which are freely available on the internet. The free explanations on LeetCode are often better than this book.
