5.0 out of 5 stars an excellent book, February 6, 2008
By lov2read (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
Truly an excellent book: well-written, clear, and very interesting (unusual for a cs textbook). This book is a great introduction to programming, but also to the field of computer science, and is full of exciting examples of applications to problems in other fields, including physics and genomics. A real gem!
