    In a Quora question about the most dense small book, the answer
    is Rayward-Smith's "A First Course in Formal Language Theory".

    I wonder if this is a well known book on Formal Language
    Theory, and is really that dense.
    [There's a copy in the Internet Archive. I took a look at the
    first chapter which is quite mathematical but no more than I
    would expect for this material. -John]
