** From a colleague in my department. Can someone help here? Bernie Galler I have found it increasingly useful (both for the undergrads in my class as well as for my own understanding) to refer back to the historical convergence of logic, neuroscience, and linguistics that surrounded the merger of automata theory with decidability theory with generative grammars, etc. into what we now present as the foundations of computer science. I'm having trouble finding a decent historical account - i.e. one that is broad (not limited to say Godel's theorem or mathematical logic alone) but theoretically oriented (not focused primarily on the computer engineering efforts of the early 20th century). Do you have any good candidates? -- Bernard A.
