[SIGCIS-Members] Electronic copy of Jean Sammet's 'Programming Languages: History and Fundamentals' 1969

[Andrew Meade McGee]

Dear Bo and David,

Thank you for this thread and for opening a conversation on the
accessibility of fundamental texts in the discipline. I thought for sure I
had a digital version of the Sammet volume to share with David, and just
went hunting to no avail. Would you be able to share with me as well, Bo?
Thank you.

Does Prentice-Hall still have the rights to this volume, I wonder?

Best,
Andrew
