This text develops a comprehensive theory of programming languages
based on type systems and structural operational semantics.
Language concepts are precisely defined by their static and dynamic
semantics, presenting the essential tools both intuitively and
rigorously while relying on only elementary mathematics. These
tools are used to analyze and prove properties of languages and
provide the framework for combining and comparing language
features. The broad range of concepts includes fundamental data
types such as sums and products, polymorphic and abstract types,
dynamic typing, dynamic dispatch, subtyping and refinement types,
symbols and dynamic classification, parallelism and cost semantics,
and concurrency and distribution. The methods are directly
applicable to language implementation, to the development of logics
for reasoning about programs, and to the formal verification
language properties such as type safety. This thoroughly revised
second edition includes exercises at the end of nearly every
chapter and a new chapter on type refinements.
