Masterminds of Programming: Conversations with the Creators of Major Programming Languages by Shane Warden, Federico Biancuzzi

3.0

Not a bad set of interviews with language creators. As you might expect with a collection of this sort, some interviews were better than others. And YMMV, depending on your tastes and familiarity with the various languages. Nearly no code was included, so it's accessible to any programmer type, even if they don't know all of the languages (although I found that my attention wandered for most of the interviews with creators whose languages I didn't know).
