the study of programming languages has evolved rapidly since we began developing the first edition of this book in 1999. for instance, java has become the dominant language in computer science curricula, beginning with cs1. agile programming has emerged as a coherent approach to software design, and its language preferences are different from those of traditional programming. the use of formal methods in software design has begun to creep into the mainstream, and its importance is now significant. in response to these and other recent events, this edition hopes to capture the excitement and new challenges that accompany the design of today's and tomorrow's programming languages. for instance, this edition has a broader and deeper coverage of all four programming paradigms and the languages that accompany them.
