Reviews from Amazon:
"I bought this book in 1990. I still read it from time to time. I could not have been a successful programmer without this. I would strongly recommend this to anybody who wants to be a programmer. The first ever book you should read. I will save this book for my children, grand children and so on."
"This book "How to solve it by computer" is a must read book for those who want to be programmer. Dromey teaches each and every problem in the easy and understandable way. He doesn't use any particular language to solve all those problems, he just uses pseudo code English-like language. Any person who wants to be programmer should first read this book and then only start learning Programming languages."
"This book should be treated as Bible. It starts with very simple examples as swapping two numbers and goes in depth taking you along with it. I have not found anything as good as this in many years. It gives a beginner programmer much needed confidence very soon. It does not use much programming language (It uses pascal syntax...but pascal is almost English). If you are entering into programming field... start with this book. You will never forget "How to Solve it by computers" in your entire life. This book has no shelf life. You will never need this again....but you cannot do it without first time."
