โฆ Synopsis
The aim of the Handbook of Programming Languages is the provision of a single comprehensive source for information concerning individual programming languages and methodologies for computing professionals. The Handbook will be published in multiple volumes and will cover a wide range of languages organized by type and functionality.
By referencing the Handbook, a professional programmer will be able to access the fundamental features of a language, find instructions on writing code and be provided with bibliographical data as well as links to on-line and/or CD-ROM sources of further information concerning the language.
The scope of the Handbook will be quite broad, offering references and programming materials to 20-30 languages of various types. -A complete handbook covering a variety of object oriented programming languages. -Each topic will be covered comprehensively -Written by authoritative contributors

While there are many books on particular languages, especially C++ and Java, they tend to concentrate on how to program using that language and their treatment of the semantics is highly languages-specific. A more wide-ranging comparison of the various languages and their underlying concepts is lack
<p>I was extremely surprised to learn that this book was so well received; I was even more surprised when a second edition was proposed. I had realised that there was a need for a book such as this but had not thought that the need was as great; I really wrote the book for myself, in order better to
Object-oriented programming originated with the Simula language developed by Kristen Nygaard in Oslo in the 1960s. Now, from the birthplace of OOP, comes the new BETA programming language, for which this book is both tutorial and reference. It provides a clear introduction to the basic concepts of O
Volume IV begins with the Logic Programming group, all descended from John McCarthy's LISP of the late 1960s. The Volume begins with a few pages from the LISP 1.5 Programmer's Manual, a vital token of things to come and moves on to LISP's offspring: LISP, Scheme, Guile, and CLOS. Finally, Jamie And
