J. Roger Hindley is an Honorary Research Fellow at Swansea University, Wales. His main research interests are Lambda-calculus and combinatory logic and he has taught at many international universities including Bristol University, Pennsylvania State University and Tokyo Institute of technology. This is his 7th book.
