A really diverse set of applications which shows the use of Mozart/Oz programming language and platform for tasks in NLP, timetabling, mobile agent computing and capability based secure programming.

On par with "Structure and Interpretations of Computer Programs" and "The Art of Computer Programming"!

This is the first book to cover most of the major computer programming models and it uses one of the best programming environments (Mozart/Oz) for its examples. I'm having a blast reading the book and doing the exercises. Soon I'll need to come up with some really challenging projects to exploit the power of Mozart/Oz. The only flaw in my mind is the bias against lexical typing. If you're seriously interested in computer programming, this one is a must read.
