Abstract
From the Publisher: Provides an in-depth introduction to the principles of programming design and implementation. Gives up-to date coverage of most of the topics in the Programming Languages Subject Area as outlined in the 1991 ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Curriculum Task Force Report. Coverage of Common Themes for programming languages in general, and Special Features of individual programming languages. Organized around design issues, this coverage allows the instructor great freedom in structuring and choosing examples. Emphasis on major principles and paradigms of programming languages rather than on individual languages themselves. Gives students a firm grasp of the fundamental concepts of programming language theory, illustrated by a wealth of specific examples drawn from the most widely used languages,including Pascal, Modula-2, Ada, C, FORTRAN, Lisp, Prolog, ML, Miranda, C++, Simula, and SmallTalk.

Definitional Interpreters for Higher-Order Programming Languages
Higher-order programming languages (i.e., languages in which procedures or labels can occur as values) are usually defined by interpreters that are themselves written in a programming language based on the lambda calculus (i.e., an applicative language ...
