Review
"Friedman, Wand, and Haynes have done a landmark job.... The sample interpreters in this book are outstanding models. Indeed, since they are runnable models, I'm sure that these interpreters will find themselves at the cores of many programming systems over the years."
—from the foreword by Hal Abelson
