Hello World: Being Human in the Age of Algorithms by Hannah Fry

4.0

This is a great popular-sciency introduction into algorithms and the state of machine learning. I would recommend it to secondary school students and the like. The topics covered and examples given provide a good basic understanding of what algorithms can do for us today and which moral and technical conundrums we still need to solve.
