Editorial Reviews
        Book Description
Thisbook presents the concepts, methods, and results that are fundamentalto the science of computing. The book begins with the basic ideas ofalgorithms such as the structure and the methods of data manipulation,and then moves on to demonstrate how to design an accurate andefficient algorithm. Inherent limitations to algorithmic design arealso discussed throughout the second part of the text. The thirdedition features an introduction to the object-oriented paradigm alongwith new approaches to computation. Anyone interested in beingintroduced to the theory of computer science.

      From the Back Cover
  From a review of the first edition:
‘This book is a veritable tour de force. Harel writes with uncommon verve, clarity and imagination.'
‘Throughthe use of tantalizing questions and aptly chosen and often amusingexamples, the author transmits to the reader the excitement andintellectual satisfaction of computer science research. Without the useof formal mathematics and without any sacrifice of intellectualintegrity, he conveys to the general reader the profound principles onwhich computer science is founded and which hitherto were onlyaccessible in abstruse and esoteric textbooks and papers.'
‘This is scientific writing at its best.'
Dr Stan Scott, Queen's University Belfast. The Times Higher Education Supplement.
Thisbook tells the story of the concepts, ideas, methods and resultsfundamental to computer science, in a form independent of the detailsof specific computers, languages and formalisms. It concerns the true'spirit' of computers; with the 'recipes' that make them tick - theiralgorithms.
New to this edition

• Chapters on software engineering and on reactive systems.

• Thoroughly revised chapter on programming languages.

• New material on quantum and molecular computing.

• Wholetext thoroughly updated to include new material on many topics,including abstract data types, the object-oriented paradigm, primalitytesting, and system verification and validation.

DavidHarel is Professor and Dean of the Faculty of Mathematics and ComputerScience at the Weizmann Institute of Science. He is renowned foroutstanding research in many areas of the field, and has recently beenawarded the Israel Prize in Computer Science.
Yishai Feldman is onthe faculty of the Efi Arazi School of Computer Science at theInterdisciplinary Centre, Herzliya. He specializes in the use ofatificial-intelligence techniques in software engineering and itsreal-world applications.
