Title: difficult read, author presumes you know Oberon
Product review: Dry, uninteresting introduction to compiler design. Written like a reference rather than a text, the book is about as exciting as watching grass grow. Do not try reading this without at least 8 hours of prior sleep. The author should collaberate with an American writer and make it easier to read. The author makes it a point to showcase all of his publications and work. He also assumes the reader has some inate knowledge of Oberon, Modula and Pascal - all very esoteric languages and of questionable relevance.
