SICP

Name: Anonymous 2010-11-30 6:29

CL: PCL, PAIP(also belones a bit with Scheme), On Lisp, Hyperspec, CLTL2, Keene's OO in CL, AMOP, plenty of nice papers and some free books.
Scheme: SICP, HtDP, LiSP(lisp in small pieces, also belongs with CL too), RnRS, Lambda Papers (plenty), a lot of awesome papers (hygienic macro systems are theorethically awesome, even if I'm more in then CL camp of procedural ones when it comes to actual practical use; scheme compiler in 90 minutes is also very cool as it features continuations too)

On other CL books: Land Of Lisp also appears fun, but I haven't read it, so I still recommend PCL as the starter book. Let over Lambda has lots of cool tricks the advanced Lisper may or may not know, but I think the book teaches some bad practices too, so I would only recommend it to advanced Lispers who can judge for themselves. ANSI CL(PG's) was my first CL book, however while it's a decent book, Graham's CL is not the most idiomatic code one can write, and it also omits various things, especially those that he doesn't like, so I ended up reading it in parallel with PCL.

As for Scheme books, SICP is perfect, but I wouldn't fault anyone with starting with olde Lambda papers or HtDP, there's a lot of things that just LAMBDA and TCO can bring you, and some Lispers don't realize the true power of those two combined (THE ULTIMATE GOTO).

I'm currently reading my SICP on a daily basis, but started to play with the thought to take a look at CL. first peeks scared me off, though. (first)?IHBT. also, from my current judging it seems unnecessarily bloated no, srsly.
anyways. if I were to chose a single CL book, I'd probably chose LOL. so, worth the read?
