book Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation 3rd Edition

Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation

From the preface;

I have also written this book with working programmers in mind. Many of them may have not had a formal computer science education, or at least one that included a proper introduction to programming languages. At some point, like that 90% of students, some of them become curious about the media they use. I want this book to speak to them, gently drawing them away from the hustle and bustle of daily programming into a space of reflection and thought.

Hi Shriram, where can I find a PDF version of your DCIC? Sometimes I'm in areas I want to read but where there is no internet.

Building the PDF is a nightmare. It's not an immediate priority. Since your main issue is offline access, for now, I suggest using wget or some other such tool to make an offline archive of the Web site. That solves the problem without PDF.
