Summary: Not so good for the beginner
Comment: Although the author of the book is teaching my LISP class, the book is very difficult for a beginner to LISP and has almost no actual code to learn from. It tends to be wordy and the examples are abstract and not clear. The author is a really nice guy, but in consencus with many of my other classmates, the book is very hard to learn from and brushes over many topics which I have found covered in greater detail in other texts.

Rating: 1
Summary: Horrible for trying to learn the language
Comment: While this is a good book for a reference to the language, there are virtually no examples of code within the book at all. If you are new to LISP, you will not benefit much by buying this.

Rating: 4
Summary: Easy reading for the novice Common Lisp programmer
Comment: This book is a classic in the Lisp literature. It is extremely readable. Those new to Lisp can gain from this. Good Lisp programming style is emphasized. this book is a reworking of the author's earlier book LispCraft. Ease of reading should be considered this work's greatest asset.
