book is about the creation of the field of forensics. made me love empiricism all over again

Are there any good books on Computer Science from a perspective that show its utility from a deeper level

I don't know how to word it, but in a way that shows how interesting CS is for science/math, so to speak
>>
>>8638157

this one >>8635824
>>
>>8638157
>>8638181

Actually, the one in the OP image is very relevant to physics and math
>>
>>8638203
no, it is not, it's absolute shit
>>
>>8638212

it isn't bad

I liked the intros to physics concepts such as entropy, maxwell's demon and information theory
>>
>>8638240
that's not an intro to physics
that's a bunch of popsci nonsense

you can take literally any topic and plaster it like that, deforming it into popsci nonsense
>>
>>8638249

What's your definition of popsci? "not totally boring?"
>>
>>8638265
what am I supposed to answer? if you find science and math boring you're in the wrong place
>>
>>8634616
Feynman books.
Heisenberg: science and philosophy.
>>
>>8638268

I said Just because it's not totally boring doesn't mean it's popsci
>>
>>8638290
yes, and that clearly shows you find science and math boring. it's popsci.
>>
>>8638297

some math and science is totally boring

some isn't

this one isn't
>>
>>8638313
this isn't math or science
that leads me to believe your categorization (boring / not boring) is actually something like science / popscience and you enjoy the latter
>>
>>8638321

yes it is tho
>>
>>8638326
I took the time to browse through the book for 10 minutes
it's not science or math, it's shit, and there's nothing to be learned from it
it's mindless entertainment from pretentious faggots who don't know anything about these topics
