Review
Praise for previous editions
“There’s no such thing as the only computer science book you’ll ever need. But if you had to pick only one, this would be a great choice.”
—Hal Abelson, coauthor (with Gerald Jay Sussman) of Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
“This is the ‘computational thinking’ book we have all been waiting for! With humor and historical anecdotes, John Guttag conveys the breadth and joy of computer science without compromising technical detail.”
—Jeannette M. Wing, Director of Columbia University’s Data Sciences Institute
