# Computer Science - Great Readings
This document consists of great books or articles on computer science.
Some are here because there is a course covering the same material;
some are just great books that you should read at some point in your career.
Once you have made it through most of the curriculum, knowing whether a book is worth your time will become easier.
Or, if you are struggling in one of the courses, perhaps reading a book on the subject will help.

[Introduction to Computing: Explorations in Language, Logic, and Machines](http://www.computingbook.org/) | David Evans
READINGS: Add Introduction to the Theory of Computation (#545) This books contains easy to understand introduction to the automata theory, which is missing in "Introduction to computing" book by David Evans. It does not require complicated math, so it can be useful to students who do not want to become theoretical computer scientists, but want do have general understanding of it's topics. Also, it almost perfectly matches The Automata Theory course we have in the curriculum.
