This new text examines the design and implementation of Icc, a production-quality, retargetable compiler, designed at AT&amp;T Bell Laboratories and Princeton University for the ANSI C programming language. The authors' innovative approach - a "literate program" that intermingles the text with the source code - gives a detailed tour of the code that explains the implementation and design decisions reflected in the software. And while most books describe toy compilers or focus on isolated pieces of code, the authors have made available the entire source code for a real compiler. Structured as a self-study guide that describes the real-world tradeoffs encountered in building a production-quality compiler, A Retargetable C Compiler is also useful to individuals who work in application areas using or creating language-based tools and techniques. Features: discusses the implementation and design tradeoffs made while constructing a real ANSI C compiler, illustrating the interaction between theory and practice; covers compiler theory only as needed to understand the implementation of Icc, focusing instead on practical, applied issues; encourages a deeper understanding of programming in C, by providing C programmers with a tour of the language from the perspective of compiler authors; includes coverage of code generators for the MIPS R3000, SPARC, and Intel 386 and its successors; and provides access to the full source code for the Icc compiler, the three back ends, and the code-generator generator, either on disk or via FTP.

The Chewy Cerebrum and Other Stories is the first collaborative compilation by Christopher Fraser and Joseph O'Brien, with a series of specially-drawn illustrations from Gemma Smith and Greg Curzon.  Included: a children's story about a tyrannical queen obsessed with homemade preserves, an American depressive with recurring hallucinations of a talking cat, the story of one man's fall into a cannibalistic cult, a Matrix-style computer used to provide wet dreams for its creators, a lunatic wandering the deserts of Mali, a dystopian sci-fi comedy-drama about a group of dysfunctional time-travelling freaks, an unspeakable death aboard a train, a short comic about alternative headache cures, a murderous alien set free on an unknown coastline, an angry letter to the BBC exposing what you'll wish you never knew about children's TV, and the end of the world, all generously peppered with freakish drawings that would take a degree in advanced psychology to make sense of.

What is "High Strange"? It's the men in black erasing your UFO research. It's a corporate takeover by bio-occult horrors. It's losing your edge, and finding it again at the bottom of the cosmos. It's your television telling you to eat your government-approved genetically-modified breakfast cereal. It's the unexplained lights in the sky and the faceless gray woman haunting your dreams. It's ancient legends working under contract. It's the forbidden film playing at a haunted movie theater. It's the medical staff making sure you stay crazy. It's the 19th round of mini golf with a disembodied pirate. It's the outer reaches of human experience. Where conventional reality ends, High Strange begins. Over a dozen authors mine the deepest reaches of consciousness and Fortean phenomena. Are you ready to see what lies beyond the veil?
