The Computational Beauty of Nature (1997) by William Flake is the book that cemented my fascination with computation, computability, and computer science as having something fundamental to say about the physical universe in which we live.It probably sounds banal to all of you in this age but for a 16 year old steeped in high school physics and this mysterious ’calculus’ problems with their elegant closed form solutions the idea of the amount of actual calculating required to figure something out being relevant was... amazing. |
