Description
How many textbooks are there?
How much does the average textbook cost?
What percentage of the average textbook is irrelevant to you because it's either too complex, too unfocused, or just plain irrelevant to the subject at hand?
With this book, you are getting a brief survey of over 100 terms and topics inherent to the study of computer science, through blog-like topical focuses and a rich glossary.
As one previewer (a NASA engineer with decades of experience in the field) puts it, "It's drinking from a fire hose, but it beats filtering through lots of chaff."
Cross-indices between the glossary and the text provide you with the resources you need to immerse your mind in the field. When you are done, you will have a foundation to begin deeper study of hardware, software, programming, and theory.
