One of the best, sorry, no THE best book I've ever read about computers. Period.

It's a really good book for the younger generations as well, you know those kids who never had to code assembler or learn C. :)

This is the book that taught me the fundamentals of how computers work. It has done me wonders. I highly recommend this book to any novice, geek or anyone who is interested in computers.

This is probably the most entertaining book on the subject of computers I have ever read. I recently finished reading it myself and while it revealed very little to me I did not already know, the well thought out explanations of computer fundamentals have shined a whole new light on the subject for me. It should really be the first book anyone interested in computers and programming should read.

Required reading for the CS 100 course at my school, I liked it. It's pretty cheap on Amazon, too, anyone interested should definitely get a copy.

Anyone got a link to the toc and sample chapter that doesn't 404?
