Teaching computer science offers more than algorithmic thinking (or more general and as recently presented: computational thinking). To understand this claim, one has to have a more careful look at the development of human culture, science, and technology.

This leads to the creation of textbooks that do not focus on particular knowledge for specialists, but offer serious contributions in the very general framework of education.
