It has become a well-known fact that most graph polynomials are related to the Tutte Polynomial in some way. In fact, that area of graph polynomials has grown to such an extent that it now has its own subject classification (05C31). This handbook is the first one published on the Tutte Polynomial which is a central, heavily-studied object in the field of combinatorics with applications in a wide range of other fields such as geometry, biology and physics.
