A new approach is formulated for the matching polynomial m(G) of a graph G. A matrix A(G) is associated with G. A certain function defined on A(G) yields the matching polynomial of G. This approach leads to a simple characterization of m(G). It also facilitates a technique for constructing graphs with a given matching polynomial.
