“How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python” by Allen Downey, Jeff Elkner and Chris Meyers can be download in various formats. The goal of this book is to teach you to think like a computer scientist.

Book Description

This way of thinking combines some of the best features of mathematics, engineering, and natural science. Like mathematicians, computer scientists use formal languages to denote ideas (specifically computations). Like engineers, they design things, assembling components into systems and evaluating tradeoffs among alternatives. Like scientists, they observe the behavior of complex systems, form hypotheses, and test predictions.
