Another book taking this kind of horizontal approach explains different programming paradigms rather than concrete languages: "Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming" by Peter Van Roy and Seif Haridi (http://www.info.ucl.ac.be/~pvr/book.html http://www.info.ucl.ac.be/~pvr/book.html). It is IMHO a deeply illuminating book.
