Algorithms (The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series): Louridas, Panos: 9780262539029: Amazon.com: Books

Panos Louridas is Associate Professor in the Department of Management Science and Technology at the Athens University of Economics and Business. He is the author of Real World Algorithms: A Beginner's Guide (MIT Press). We like putting labels on time periods, perhaps because affixing a tab on time allows us to get a grip on its fluidity. We have therefore started speaking of the present as the dawning of a new algorithmic age, in which algorithms will reign supreme, and will govern larger and larger parts of our lives. It is interesting that we are not talking about the computer age or internet age anymore.
