![Book cover: Compiler Design in C](images/10378.jpg)
by Allen I. Holub - Prentice-Hall , 1990
The approach is similar to that taken by Tanenbaum for operating systems in the C-language that implements all algorithms. The book presents the subject of Compiler Design in a way that's understandable to a programmer, rather than a mathematician.

![Book cover: Compiler Construction](images/7977.jpg)
- Wikibooks , 2011
The purpose of this book is to provide practical advice on writing a compiler, together with some examples of both compilers and interpreters, in order to break away from the concept that building compilers and interpreters are impossible tasks.

![Book cover: Let's Build a Scripting Engine-Compiler](images/4772.jpg)
by S. Arbayo , 2010
This is a very hands-on approach to crafting a compiler and it does not follow any pre-defined set of rules. It is the author's intent to take some of the mystery out of what goes into making a working scripting engine - compiler.

![Book cover: Lightweight Compiler Techniques](images/4620.jpg)
by Nils M Holm - Lulu Press , 2006
This book explains compiler construction in simple terms and by means of practical examples, but without avoiding the fundamental theory. It does not stop where other books do, and takes you on a tour through the whole compilation process.

![Book cover: Bison: The Yacc-compatible Parser Generator](images/3468.jpg)
by Charles Donnelly, Richard Stallman - Free Software Foundation , 2009
Bison is a general-purpose parser generator that converts an annotated context-free grammar into an LALR(1) or GLR parser for that grammar. You need to be fluent in C or C++ programming in order to use Bison or to understand this manual.
