Why is this book so tall? Good grief, it's like a notebook. I guess it's easier to fit into one's backpack though.
Introduces all the basic concepts of the "science" of computer science. Logic, probability, relations, graphs, algorithm efficiency, it's all here. There's even a little bit of combinatorial math, which I've lately come to love.
And yes, of course, our favorite: the pigeonhole principle. I swear, computer science textbooks make such a big deal about it, that for weeks after I first "learned" it, I thought I had to be missing something. Surely, such an OBVIOUS statement isn't something that they need to TEACH people? They must mean something else. Nope. That's it. Oh well.
