Summary: It is a rich book for an undergraduate course.
Review: I am a lecturer, and I am using this book as a text for my comparative languages course (CS316). I found this book rich of information and very suitable for our course. But if I want to comment on the contencts, I guess some of the material needs to be reorganized. Some of sudents feel that there is a missing link between the subjects within the chapter.

I hope we can find the new edition soon. Where it must contain the concepts of the new languages such as Java.

All the best, Qasem Al-Radaideh; Yarmouk University; Jordan.
