There is also a second edition, which updates some chapters with much more recent resulst (AFAIR, the book is from 1992.) In addtion, the author (Dick Grune) also co-authored a book on compilers ("Modern Compiler Design"), which I like a lot as it has a sound treatment of non-imperative programming language concepts, too. (Plus I think the treatment of BURS plus usage for instruction selection is best described therein as well.)
