5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful encyclopedic book,
This review is from: The Nature of Computation (Hardcover)
This is a beautiful encyclopedic book, which covers a large range of topics from Theoretical Computer Science. The style favors intuition and clarity over technical details. Chapters 4 to 8 can be used as a textbook for an undergraduate complexity course. For computer science and mathematics students the book has the great advantage of examples from the physics world... the more advanced material can be easily used for graduate courses or seminars. For example, Chapters 12, 13 and 14 by themselves could be a perfect basic text for an advanced course in probabilistic methods in computer science and discrete mathematics. I hope future readers enjoy the book as much as I did.

Awesome book!,

This review is from: The Nature of Computation (Hardcover)
Great book, even for people who haven't taken hardly any math/CS classes! As an EE Ph.D. student, it is very helpful in building from the fundamentals to higher level concepts and is a fun read, besides!
