Críticas:

From the reviews of the fifth edition:

“The book’s 16 chapters start with the history of computing for some reason, along with superficial chapters on morality, law, and ethics. ... This book is clearly useful as an introductory textbook. ... End-of-chapter references and suggestions for further reading are extensive and helpful in a classroom setting, as are end-of-chapter exercises.” (David Bellin, Computing Reviews, February, 2014)
