| Generally i'm poor. I live with 100€ per month and currently looking for a job, because I bearly make ends meet. A family friend gifted me a few euros and I want to finally buy books, Which I haven't done for a while now. Few information about me to help you with your recommendation(s): * I'm 2nd year CS student in Greece * I'm interested in hardware and user security. Also in security education of vulnerable population. * Politically i consider my self anarco-communist (black and red flag). * I'm dyslexic * I started studying maths "from the beginning" because I love their usefulness but also their cognitive beauty. Trying to throw away the psychological abuse I experienced during my school years. * I love post-punk, dark wave, rap, punk, rock, IDM, techno. * I love dark and romantic poetry: Baudelaire, Sylvia Plath, Katerina gogou, Thanos anestopoulos, Kavafis. * One of my favorite movies is felini's "La dolce vita" * I believe strongly on autodidactism and self-education. With the occasional help of experts/mentors. |
In your situation, I wouldn't spend any money on books.
1. Use a library if there's one available to you.
2. There's tonnes of free books online - if you want fiction, project Gutenberg is full of older books; and every technical/CS/math topic has great free textbooks that you can download.
3. Pirating - I wouldn't feel guilty about it at all if I were in your situation.
