On: Ask HN: Which Lisp book should we publish first?

[almost]

For those that don't know (probably smaller on here then elsewhere but still):

HtDP: How to Design Programs SICP: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs PCL: Practical Common Lisp ACL: ASCII Common Lisp PAIP: Principles off Artificial Intelligence Programming OL: On Lisp

Personally I'd probably go for PCL because it's... practical.

OL is pretty awesome though, I wish someone would reprint it in English, I have a self printed copy but I'd very much like to own a proper one!

[cryptical → almost]

Do you mean ACL: ANSI Common Lisp and PAIP: Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming?

[almost → cryptical]

Whoops! I did. Both of them are on the shelf just above my computer so I've got no excuse!

Off topic: What happened to the edit link? I want to hide my mistakes! ;]

[pWneD → almost]

I'd go for PCL as well then learn your way through.
