For CS fundamentals, I would say "Computer Science: A Programmes Perspective" covers a good portion.

That's Computer Systems: A Programmer's Perspective, not Computer Science. It's reportedly a good book, but by the TOC I wouldn't consider it CS fundamentals so much as systems programming fundamentals.
