This book is a complete, exhaustive, yet readable exposition of highspeed, binary digital computer arithmetic hardware and its rationale. In order to be tutorial without sacrifice to rigor, the emphasis leaves less to the reader's imagination at the risk of being repetitious.
Originally, my purpose was to write a book, using my first book Computer Logic (Prentice-Hall, Inc., 1960) as a “jumping-off” place, that would lead the reader from the novice to the expert class, to an understanding of the frontiers of computer design. A basic requirement was, and still is, to keep the text readable by avoiding all such phrases as “it can be shown” or “it is easily proved” and by writing reasonable explanations. The objective of clarity restricted the scope of my work which then became a complete coverage of arithmetic units. Since parallel, natural, binary arithmetic is used in all of the fastest, largest computers available, it is the primary topic of interest here. The result is a thorough, though somewhat specialized text.
