Hardback. Condition: Good. An Introduction to Computer Logic (1975) ? H. Troy, B. D. Carroll & J. David Irwin Prentice Hall ? ISBN: 0134800125 ? Condition: Good Binary-minded, gently aged, from Crappy Old Books Back when computers filled rooms, smoked gently, and spoke fluent punch card, someone had to explain what on earth was happening inside all those cabinets with the flashing lights. Enter An Introduction to Computer Logic (1975), a textbook from that noble era when: ?User friendly? meant ?the manual is under 500 pages,? Debugging occasionally involved a literal moth, And knowing your ANDs from your ORs made you an absolute legend in the lab. This is computer science before it got cool, ironic and app-shaped ? back when it wore a tie, used chalkboards, and thought 64K was loads of memory. Condition: Good (like a well-maintained mainframe) When Crappy Old Books says Good , we mean: The cover is intact and sensibly serious ? no neon ?learn to code in a weekend? nonsense here. The spine is solid, with perhaps a thoughtful crease or two from prior bouts of late-night exam panic. All pages present, properly bound, and fully legible ? no missing truth tables, no vanished Karnaugh maps, no mysteriously absent chapter on flip-flops. Modest, honest wear: gently softened corners, maybe a faint imprint where someone pressed too hard writing ?THIS WILL BE ON THE TEST? in their notes. No coffee tidal waves, no frantic highlighter graffiti in six colours, no margin doodles of sad transistors. Just a clean, respectably used Good condition textbook, ready to lecture you like it?s 1975. What?s going on inside? This is LOGIC in the old-school, chalk-dust sense: Propositions, predicates, and proofs ? the foundations of thinking clearly, whether you wanted to or not. Boolean algebra, truth tables and basic theorem wrangling ? because computers are basically giant sulky machines that only understand true/false and still manage to be dramatic about it. Logic gates: AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR ? the full dysfunctional family, mapped into circuits with very straight lines and very serious diagrams. Sequential logic: latches, flip-flops, counters ? devices that remember things, unlike the person who was supposed to bring the assignment in. The tone is: ?We assume you have a brain and are prepared to use it.? No cartoons. No mascot. No ?gamified learning experience.? Just clear explanations, exercises, and the quiet expectation that you will sit down, work it out, and maybe learn something. A glimpse into pre-laptop academia Reading this now is like auditing a course from: A world without Wi-Fi, where your ?connection? was how well the cabling was soldered. Lecture halls full of overhead projectors, squeaky chairs, and students who carried slide rules unironically. A time when ?computer science? was not about UX flows and mobile-first design, but about whether your circuit actually? you know? worked. It?s pure retro CS : No JavaScript frameworks. No social media algorithms. No talk of ?the cloud,? unless it?s affecting the radio signal. Just you, some symbols, and the uneasy realisation that the laptop you?re reading this on is still doing all of this under the hood. Why you might actually want this You could use it as: A reference if you?re learning digital logic and want something that explains it without memes or 17 layers of abstraction. A historical curiosity , seeing how they taught this stuff when ?home computer? meant ?you built it yourself and it smelled of solder.? A prop for any 70s/80s tech-themed set, photo shoot, or cosplay of ?slightly stressed undergraduate in brown flares.? A conversation starter on your shelf: ?Oh that? It?s from when logic still frightened people.? It?s also fun to see how much hasn?t changed. All the silicon glamour still boils down to the same humble TRUE/FALSE you?ll find painstakingly laid out here. Why a Good used copy is exactly right A pristine, untouched copy of a 1975 logic textbook would be suspicious ? like code that ?definitely worked first try.? From Crappy Old Books , this Good copy: Looks like it?s been through at least one course, possibly two, but escaped with dignity. Has enough wear to prove it?s actually been opened, but not enough to suggest it was hurled across the room before finals. Invites you to scribble in pencil, shove in a bookmark, and actively use it ? the way the authors intended, back when every exercise was a battle and calculators had red LEDs. It?s not a relic; it?s a working tool that just happens to be wearing wide collars and listening to prog rock. Ideal for readers who: Are studying digital logic and secretly enjoy doing things the old-school way. Collect vintage computing books, manuals, and early CS textbooks. Want to understand what?s actually happening below the level of ?my IDE yelled at me again.? Are fond of the idea that somewhere, deep down, all modern tech is just a huge pile of carefully organised TRUEs and FALSEs. Also great for: Tech nostalgics Electronics hobbyists People who like the smell of old paper and the sight of a well-drawn logic circuit The binary facts Title: An Introduction to Computer Logic Authors: H. Troy, B. D. Carroll & J. David Irwin Publisher: Prentice Hall (1975) ISBN: 0134800125 Condition: Good ? gently worn, fully intact, mentally demanding An Introduction to Computer Logic : for when you?re ready to look past the glossy apps and meet the stern, binary heart of computing, as explained by three patient men in 1975. Supplied in honestly Good condition by Crappy Old Books , who firmly believe that inside every modern gadget lives a tiny, anxious truth table. Seller Inventory # 5108
