Review title: The most worthless computer science book I've read
Product review: Considering that this book is an inch thick, it really has surprisingly little valuable content. The author does mention a decent number of topics, but usually only in one sentence or excercise; it never seems to be enough to actually learn anything valuable about the topic at hand. It just seems like the information density of the book is too low. Trying to learn from it is like squeezing blood from a turnip. If you want to learn this material, read Programming Language Pragmatics by Michael L. Scott instead--it's far better!
