'This is an excellent book about Erdos-Ko-Rado (EKR) Theorems and how to prove them by algebraic methods … The writing style is reader-friendly, and proofs are well organized and easily followed. Also, every chapter contains Exercises and Notes, which are very useful for expanding understanding and finding further reading. The reviewer recommends this book without hesitation to all graduate students and researchers interested in combinatorics.' Norihide Tokushige, MathSciNet
