Suppose I want to learn how ML is compiled, and especialy how OCaml is compiled, it's various internal lambda representations and the like. Would this book : http://www.amazon.com/Modern-Compiler-Implementation-Andrew-Appel/dp/0521607647/ be a good one ? It's hard to tell what this book's worth from the customer advices ; it's especialy hard to tell if it fits well to OCaml or not.
