The Java Virtual Machine Specification, Java SE 7 Edition:
by Tim Lindholm, Frank Yellin, Gilad Bracha, Alex Buckley

Written by the inventors of the technology, The JavaŽ Virtual Machine Specification, Java SE 7 Edition , is the definitive technical reference for the Java Virtual Machine.

This reference provides complete, accurate, and detailed coverage of the Java Virtual Machine in the Java SE 7 platform. It fully describes the invokedynamic instruction and the method handle mechanism introduced in Java SE 7, and the formal Prolog specification of the type-checking verifier introduced in Java SE 6.

The text includes the class file extensions in the Java SE 5.0 for generics and annotations, and aligns the instruction set with the Java Memory Model from JSR 133. The text also clarifies many aspects of linking and initialization.
