Schnaider’s review of the book “Informatik” by F. Bauer and G.Goos; it is stated that the authors’ idea to combine the problems of programming and computer logic into a common science seems hardly successful, but it would be advisable to translate the second chapter under the title “Introduction to algorithmic languages”.
