For those who don't know, Aho and Ullman wrote the "dragon book", a classic text on compilers.
Aho is also the "a" in awk.
brilliant, didn't know that! (and I do know who w and k are in awk fame!)
Makes me want an iPad to read it on.
I'm still absolutely blown away by the fact that the iPad doesn't have a reader which allows you to annotate books as you read them!

Thank you for posting this.
section 8.7 deals with relational algebra. this is a really nice mathematical underpinning to SQL.
It would be great to have it as a single pdf (or better yet, epub).
Anyone got the right tools to make it so quickly?

Realistically, this represents all the CS theoretical knowledge required for 99% practicing developers. At Acunote we occasionally need remedial training materials for new hires, say on complexity theory, and a chapter from this book will work great.
