J. S. Bach
Knížka, kterou jsem si opakovaně půjčoval z adamovské knihovny. Byl jsem snad jediný.
Introduction to Algorithms
Nevím, jestli jsem to dočetl.
Slova a pravidla
Knížka od Pinkera. Přestal jsem ji číst, protože nesouhlasím s teorií, kterou tam Pinker popisuje. Obsahuje spoustu pěkných příkladů, ale jejich interpretace mě rozčilovala, tak jsem ji asi v půlce odložil.

The quasivisual nature of the phenomenology of comprehension has been almost entirely ignored by researchers in cognitive science, particularly in Artificial Intelligence, who have attempted to create language-understanding computer systems.
Foundations of Statistical Natural Language Processing
Sometimes it felt a bit out-dated but the explanations of various algorithms and principles was very good and understanable.

Give and Take
Givers, takers and matchers. Givers are the most and least successful of all. I had to stop listening to this.
