Book Description
"First book-length exposition of the denotational (or `mathematical' or `functional') approach to the formal semantics of programming languages (in contrast to `operational' and `axiomatic' approaches). Treats various kinds of languages, beginning with the pure-lambda-calculus and progressing through languages with states, commands, jumps, and assignments. This somewhat discursive account is a valuable compilation of results not otherwise available in a single source."-- American Mathematical Monthly

4.0 out of 5 stars A Classic, but if you havent read it yet, you probably won't, July 18, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Denotational Semantics: The Scott-Strachey Approach to Programming Language Theory (Computer Science Series) (Paperback)
You can read this for pleasure or personal edification. It's probably quite hard to get hold of now. It's a classic, and it's completely out of date. A bit like Plutarch.
