See Miklós Bóna’s review of the first edition. Beyond the usual minor changes and improvements, the author tells us that several major additions have been made:

  • “a proof of the connective constant of the hexagonal lattice”
  • “an improved influence theorem for general product spaces”
  • “a streamlined proof of exponential decay for subcritical percolation”
  • “a proof of the critical point of the random-cluster model on the square lattice”

This is clearly a successful advanced textbook.


Fernando Q. Gouvêa is the editor of MAA Reviews.
