Just picked up Wigderson's book and I am liking it so far :

Final draft version of the book available here for personal research and education:

I looked at the book and it's more for graduate-advanced undergrad students.

Can someone recommend a more basic book on the topic of computation for someone with a rusty comp-sci/math undergrad background?

You could have a look at https://hefferon.net/computation which is certainly aimed at a broader audience.
Try What Can be Computed by John MacCormick :

Introduction to the Theory of Computation by Michael Sipser
Sipser is the canonical text for undergraduates.
Agreed
