Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs has had a
dramatic impact on computer science curricula over the past decade.
This long-awaited revision contains changes throughout the
text.There are new implementations of most of the major programming
systems in the book, including the interpreters and compilers, and
the authors have incorporated many small changes that reflect their
experience teaching the course at MIT since the first edition was
published.A new theme has been introduced that emphasizes the
central role played by different approaches to dealing with time in
computational models: objects with state, concurrent programming,
functional programming and lazy evaluation, and nondeterministic
programming. There are new example sections on higher-order
procedures in graphics and on applications of stream processing in
numerical programming, and many new exercises.In addition, all the
programs have been reworked to run in any Scheme implementation
that adheres to the IEEE standard.
