Summary
First published in 1998, this textbook is a broad but rigourous survey of the theoretical basis for the design, definition and implementation of programming languages and of systems for specifying and proving programme behaviour. Both imperative and functional programming are covered, as well as the ways of integrating these aspects into more general languages. Recognising a unity of technique beneath the diversity of research in programming languages, the author presents an integrated treatm…

Critics Review
“I found the whole book a distinct pleasure to read and certainly recommend this text for consideration by instructors.” Mathematical Reviews
“I found the whole book a distinct pleasure to read and certainly recommend this text for consideration by instructors.” Mathematical Reviews“clearly structured…the presentation is clear, and the typesetting often helps the reader to understand the structure of the formulas. Each chapter contains valuable exercises and profound bibliographic notes that can serve as a starting point for further reading. I shall use this excellent textbook in my lectures.” Computing Reviews”…an important book…It is thorough and well organized, and the explanations are very clear. I found the technical content to be in almost every respect flawless. Although written to be a student text, I believe that most researchers (and many practitioners) in programming lanauges (and related fields) would find it worth reading.” Journal of Functional Programming
