Ask YC: Book on Lisp

[Novash]

A long time ago, someone posted here a link to a book on lisp that went out of press and thus was being offered for free as pdf. I downloaded it, but I lost it, and I can't seem to find it again. Could someone please point me to the book again?

You're talking about On Lisp. http://www.paulgraham.com/onlisp.html

Also, keep out an eye for my Lisp textbook in the Fall based on my comic book for New Starch Press! www.lisperati.com

Is ISBN "0130305529" it? ~ http://www.paulgraham.com/onlisptext.html

I still have my ANSI Common Lisp textbook from my K.R.a.P. class at Georgia Tech - http://www.paulgraham.com/acl.html

(maybe I should get it signed, heh)

[xirium → bfioca]

I wonder how often Paul Graham gets requests to signs books.

The Touretzky book is also available as a free PDF. I didn't like it, though.
