A book on Computer Science for non-computer-scientists. Computer science deals with the abstract, which makes it difficult for the outsider to get away from the hardware and software that are its manifestations. Clearly the author is knowledgeable enough to write for the computer science lay person to understand how it comes about that computers work. Our wording is deliberate. In passing we would mention that few of those expert in the use of computers understand the concepts set out in this book.
