Language Design Books

{

Joel Spolsky is so popular that I'm sure upon his mention of "Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools" - the so called "Dragon Book" - interest and sales must have shifted a little.

In this week's Software Development Times Larry O'Brien clarifies with a few resources including Modern Compiler Design, and Programming Language Pragmatics.

Because I'm not classically trained, I find myself with significant gaps in areas like this (compiler construction, algorithms, etc... ), so a reading list is a good thing to have. Of course, the list is the easy part and the finding of time to read and study is what is difficult.
