Sets, Logic and Maths for Computing by David Makinson

This easy-to-follow book introduces the mathematical language, knowledge and problem-solving skills needed for the study of computing. The language is both qualitative and quantitative, and includes basic notions of logic used for representation and proof.

From the reviews of the second edition:

“This book is an excellent introductory course on mathematical language, knowledge and problem solving skills for undergraduate students who need to enter the world of computer and information sciences… This easy-to-follow text allows readers to carry out their computing studies with a clear understanding of the basic finite mathematics and mathematical logics that they will need. … is ideal for self-study as well as classroom use. … the book will be of interest to any student who would like to understand the mathematical language.” (Valentina Dagienë, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1239, 2012)

Dr. David Makinson is a Visiting Professor in the Department of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method at the London School of Economics, UK.
