This is one of the best books in the Very Short Introduction series that I have read. The author's style is generally clear and informal, but appropriately formal when necessary. This book makes me want to read others of his writings. I found a lot of very stimulating ideas when reading this volume. Great stuff! ( ) A Great introduction to fields within Computer Science. In the Epilogue, the author asks, is Computer Science, an Universal Science? I would say, yes. I'd say, you can pretty much combine computational methods to any field of science. Computer Science is complex, and solid field. The Chapter on Computer Architecture was difficult to understand, I am puzzled on the abstractions and levels within Architecture. Overall, a great book for an introduction. A Great introduction to fields within Computer Science. In the Epilogue, the author asks, is Computer Science, an Universal Science? I would say, yes.

Over the past sixty years, the spectacular growth of the technologies associated with the computer is visible for all to see and experience. Yet, the science underpinning this technology is less visible and little understood outside the professional computer science community. As a scientificdiscipline, computer science stands alongside the likes of molecular biology and cognitive science as one of the most significant new sciences of the post Second World War era.In this Very Short Introduction, Subrata Dasgupta sheds light on these lesser known areas and considers the conceptual basis of computer science. Discussing algorithms, programming, and sequential and parallel processing, he considers emerging modern ideas such as biological computing and cognitivemodelling, challenging the idea of computer science as a science of the artificial.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.
