&gt; This series offers accessible, concise, beautifully produced books on topics of current interest. Leading thinkers write the books in this series, and experts deliver overviews of subjects that range from the cultural and the historical to the scientific and the technical.<p>...<p>&quot;Open Access&quot; ($7.47) <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Open-Access-Press-Essential-Knowledge&#x2F;dp&#x2F;0262517639" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Open-Access-Press-Essential-Knowledge...</a>

All seem to link to Amazon web store. This is a commercial.

Has anyone read any of these books? I&#x27;m interested in picking up a few but want to hear other opinions before I make a purchase.

I can’t see anything on my cellphone, just huge blank spaces.

Another similar series is “Object Lessons”: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;dp&#x2F;B087JBCKV6" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;dp&#x2F;B087JBCKV6</a> … I wonder what other similar book series are out there, besides these, and the also mentioned “Very Short Introduction” series.

It&#x27;s missing a book on the most important technology of the last couple of decades: the search engine.

The one on deep learning is the best theoretical introduction I&#x27;ve read on that technology.

It may be obvious but the links are affiliate links which generate commissions for the website.
