| May 18, 2013 at 12:42 | comment | added | usul | Computer Science is quite big; can you narrow it down? It sounds like you are mainly interested in computability, type theory/programming languages, and perhaps complexity theory; does that sound right? | |

| May 17, 2013 at 17:46 | comment | added | Sasho Nikolov | For computability and basic complexity theory, how about Sipser's Introduction to the Theory of Computation? I am puzzled you have not found mathematically oriented books, because there is plenty of them. For example, Arora and Barak, and Goldreich have recent complexity theory books available online, and I am sure there are plenty of math-y track-b theory books out there. | |
| May 17, 2013 at 17:07 | comment | added | vzn | this was answered on mathoverflow computer science for mathematicians but maybe there is room for a TCS.se version | |
| May 17, 2013 at 16:44 | comment | added | Martin Berger | Theoretical computer science makes a lot more sense if one is a good, or at least reasonable programmer, because in some sense, all (most) of TCS is a formalisation (and simplification) of what working programmers do. We had a thread about related matters | |
