"This is one of the best books I have ever read. Anyone interested in computer science and mathematics should read this, even if you are not taking the courses it's designed around. Sipser is a wonderful, clear writer, and the exercises are interesting in their own right. It will provide all the "missing" fundamentals to a computer enthusiast who is curious (or at least, should be) about how computers work and why they are limited to what they can and cannot do."
"I had an incomprehensible professor, and this great little book got me through the class with flying colors. Clear, and a great resource. How often do you find yourself keeping a computer science textbook because you liked it?"
"Not that I've read a lot of automata books, but you'd have a hard time convincing me there was one more accessible than this. Sipser rocks and his writing is amazingly clear with insightful examples."
