I’ve been wanting to ask this a differential geometer - what do you think of Sussman and Wisdom’s book as a DE intro for an CS/applied math person? Thanks!

Never read it, but the preview pages look pretty neat. I might pick it up for a fun read. Might want to pair it with something like do Carmo's Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces (which is quite accessible) for the mathematical side.


Thanks for the recommendation. And yes, the lisp book should be fun. Sussman is a legendary CS educator.
