I am working thru "Implementing Functional Languages: a tutorial" and I want to look up one of the references to get more details. I am looking for the book "The implementation of Functional Programming languages" by S. L. Peyton Jones. Anyone know how I can get it? I would be willing to pay for a second hand copy if anyone has one. Matt

Hi, This book is out of print and currently there is no electronic version of it. The Haskell bookstore folk are working on reconstructing it and making it available for print-on-demand, http://www.cafepress.com/haskell_books/, but it's not clear when exactly it will be available. Your other option is to try to find a used copy, but they are pretty expensive. -marius

I am working on getting that book available in the haskell bookstore. I searched quite a while before I found a used printed copy at a reasonable price and my search was part of my motivation for creating the bookstore. It is a bit trickier than the other books on the site because I only have a scanned in copy of the print version to work with, rather than LaTeX source. but I should have time this week to get it online.

My wife (mainly) and I, with Simon's permission, have been working on getting a web-enabled version of this available for quite some time. It hovers on the brink of completion, and should be there Real Soon Now as well. This will include a web enabled table of contents and next and back buttons. If I'd known how much time she would put in, I'd have never asked her for "a small favor"....... Dave Barton EDAptive Computing
