I have been writing PHP, Ruby, ColdFusion, and javascript (not a language, I know), for several years.

But I am really wanting to get more into the world of Computer Science and writing in lower-level languages.

What are some good resources for starting out? It seems like every book I have gotten has been extremely elementary, and that isn’t at all helpful. I need something that skips the basics.

    MIT’s OpenCourseware material is a good place to look.

    Looking through this list, the following look like they hit some of the core CS topics:

    6.001 Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs   Spring 2005
6.006 Introduction to Algorithms                          Spring 2008
6.033 Computer System Engineering (SMA 5501)              Spring 2005
6.042J  Mathematics for Computer Science                    Fall 2005
