Graph Theory Coding Theory and Block Designs

These are notes deriving from lecture courses given by the authors in 1973 at Westfield College London. The lectures described the connection between the theory of t-designs on the one hand and graph theory on the other. A feature of this book is the discussion of then-recent construction of t-designs from codes. Topics from a wide range of finite combinatorics are covered and the book will interest all scholars of combinatorial theory.
