JFLAP
Free Java software from Duke University for building and running formal-language constructions by hand: finite automata, pushdown automata, Turing machines, grammars and parsers. Students step through conversions such as NFA to DFA and watch each transformation happen.
Theory of Computation
Learn automata theory and computation with Prof. Krithivasan! This course explores key concepts, providing a strong foundation in the field.
Introduction to the Theory of Computation (3rd Edition)
Sipser's standard text builds automata, Turing machines, decidability, reducibility, Rice-style arguments and complexity from careful definitions and complete proofs. After it you can prove a problem undecidable by reduction and state the Church-Turing thesis precisely.

Automata and Computability
Kozen's Cornell senior-level course notes, organized as short self-contained lectures from finite automata and context-free languages through Turing machines and undecidability. Terser and more proof-driven than Hopcroft, with homework sets and exam problems included.
