My introduction to programming was through high-energy physics research, where I learned C++ and python while running an analysis on some ATLAS data. I only really thought of programming as a mere tool until I came across The Little Schemer. This wonderful little book launched my love for computer science, and it did so by bridging the gap between the logic I learned in philosophy seminars and the bare-bones programming-as-a-tool mindset I had from physics research.

It is somewhat of an embarrassing cliche these days to have been introduced to philosophy by reading Plato's Republic, but I admit that Plato was my introduction to philosophy, too. Reading the Republic was the very first time I had encountered reason, and I discovered that I could make sense of myself and the world around me through careful introspection, abstraction, and structure. Its influence on me was so strong that I continued to study philosophy for the next ten years!
Ever since picking up Plato's Republic for the very first time as a young teenager, I stressed out about the nature of the universe and wanted to know everything that everyone else knew about it. Peskin and Schroeder's Introduction to Quantum Field Theory will forever be the book that introduced me to the nature of the universe. 2ff7e9595c
