Preview of the Next Edition of The Dragon Book

Addison Wesley have put up a sneak preview of what is in the long overdue and much anticipated updated edition of The Dragon Book (a.k.a. "Compilers: Principles, Tools and Techniques" by Aho, Ullman and Sethi). For some insane reason, they have decided to use JavaScript, Flash and pop-ups to show these chapters, prompting instant revulsion in yours truly. I'd rather wait for the dead-tree edition than subject myself to such torture.
