The best introduction I’ve ever read is Michael Sipser’s Introduction to the Theory of Computation. It is eminently readable. It somehow manages to be logically rigorous while remaining approachable. I couldn’t recommend a book more strongly for someone such as yourself. As a bonus it’s not even particularly long.

That is not a book on architecture. I like the book too, but it just doesn't have anything to do with architecture.

+1. It was a terrific read when I took my Computability course, very, very well-written.
