oh, and:

I see plenty of people have already mentioned Concrete Mathematics, so I'll spare that reference; I agree with all of its exceptional (well, for non-Knuths) rigor, dazzling examples and asides and utter unapproachability without some warming-up exercises. For those who enjoy that one, I heartily endorse Gries's A Logical Approach to Discrete Math, from the always-formal, always-authoritative Monographs in Computer Science series. It's a strong pair with CM, but brings one along a bit more gently.

The vast majority of DM texts seem utter rubbish.
