Readers should take the Marxist perspectives with a grain of salt.” (G. R. Mayforth, Computing Reviews, October 19, 2022)“All of the chapters are well written and the editorial process was clearly very good. … I found four essays particularly noteworthy … . If you are limited on time, these core essays are must-reads. I found this book interesting because it disclosed to me what others outside the computational science community see.” (Anthony J.
