Computer Science Editorial Review

Essentials of Programming Languages by Daniel P. Friedman is a must-have for anyone looking for an in-depth understanding of programming languages. The book does an excellent job of describing complex language concepts, and relating them to examples written in Scheme. The book is well-structured and the use of Scheme as a language for development is crucial. The quality of the book and the paper is also very decent. The book contains a lot of very good exercises and the subjects are well-explained.
