The book presents the rationale behind the design and development of the programming language Ada. The material, incorporating corrections to its original printing by the Ada Joint Program Office (AJPO), will be essential reading for all those currently using the language as well as those considering its adoption.
"...invaluable and irreplaceable for scholars and historians of the language." J. Moore, Computing Reviews"...with its lucid, systematic, and well-structured description of Ada written by its inventors, is especially useful to those interested in learning about the what and why of Ada." Choice
