An introduction to computer science

In assessing this book, I'm not entirely without bias: A German translation has come to me in my school days in the hands and at that time so thrilled me to the subject that I studied mathematics and computer science.

Content: Whitesitt leads didactically very well Boolean algebra as a common basis of set theory, propositional logic and Boolean algebra, and starting from a few axioms, from which he derives the whole theory conclusively. I remember dark, that I did the unusual rules of calculation and what you can do with it, just cool place. In the back of the book are based on this switching networks (ie schematics for computer components) and derailleurs (switching networks, are also considered in which the signal propagation times) developed.

For an aspiring high school graduates this is mE determine a way to see if you can have fun on the discrete mathematics and its applications in computer science.
