Reviews for Programming Language Pragmatics
"Michael Scott's book could have been entitled 'Why Programming Languages Work' ... Its comprehensive and integrated presentation of language design and implementation illustrates and explains admirably the many deep and profitable connections among these fields." -Jim Larus, Microsoft Research "This book is the best and most complete on this topic that I've seen." -Klaus Ostermann, Darmstadt University of Technology
