Algorithms by Robert Sedgewick
Algorithms by Robert Sedgewick
This book presents an interesting challenge. It talks about algorithms yet it does not present algorithms, nor does it define algorithm as anything more than a "problem-solving method suitable for implementation as computer programs[p.4]." Instead, it exhibits programs which are the implementations of algorithms and discusses them as if the algorithm is apparent. The reader is left with the challenge of learning to discriminate between what is essential about an algorithm, and how to preserve that in an implementation, versus what is inessential to the algorithm and introduced on account of the implementation and the use of particular programming tools.

Robert C. Solomon, Not Passion's Slave: Emotions and Choice

Robert C. Solomon, Not Passion's Slave: Emotions and Choice

The idea that we are in some significant sense responsible for our emotions is
 an idea that Robert Solomon has developed for almost three decades. Here, in
 a single volume, he traces the development of this theory of emotions and
elaborate it in detail. Two themes run through his work: the first presents
a "cognitive" theory of emotions in which emotions are construed primarily as
 evaluative judgments. The second proposes an "existentialist" perspective in
 which he defends the idea that, as we are responsible for our emotions.
Indeed, sometimes it even makes sense to say that we "choose" them.
