Computer Science: An Overview uses broad coverage and clear exposition to present a complete picture of the dynamic computer science field. Accessible to students from all backgrounds, Glenn Brookshear uses a language-independent context to encourage the development of a practical, realistic understanding of the field. An overview of each of the important areas of Computer Science (e.g. Networking, OS, Computer Architecture, Algorithms) provides students with a general level of proficiency for future courses. The Eleventh Edition features two new contributing authors (David Smith -- Indiana University of PA; Dennis Brylow -- Marquette University), new, modern examples, and updated coverage based on current technology.

You know how to code..but is it enough? Do you feel left out when other programmers talk about asymptotic bounds? Have you failed a job interview because you don't know computer science? The author, a senior developer at a major software company with a PhD in computer science, takes you through what you would have learned while earning a four-year computer science degree. Volume one covers the most frequently referenced topics, including algorithms and data structures, graphs, problem-solving techniques, and complexity theory. When you finish this book, you'll have the tools you need to hold your own with people who have - or expect you to have - a computer science degree.
Preliminaries; Finite automata and regular languages; Pushdown automata and context-free languages; Turing machines and phrase-structure languages; Computability; Complexity; Appendices.
