Review:

From the reviews:

"Information technologies have permeated many disciplines and have altered the ways in which a discipline that uses computers is perceived. ... . The diversity of views, approaches, and source makes this book extraordinarily rich and informative ... . any instructor teaching in the undergraduate program would benefit from this book ... . Graduate students, too ... will benefit from this volume. ... As a matter of fact, I would recommend this volume sincerely to my colleagues in Computer Science department everywhere."
