SL galley proof ready

SL update: Successful Lisp is ready for galley proof printing. I've issued the CVS tag "ADVISE" and uploaded the files to the printer. I've made the title/toc and index available: [index] [title-toc]

T-shirt update: We just made our first online sale! I hope we will get some action shots from customers wearing the t-shirts.

Would you rate this book higher than the Touretzky book, and why?

SL rating - posted by Markus Fix - 2004/10/16 18:29:21
Touretzky is OK, if you never programmed before. I think the approach used in SL is quite attractive to the experienced programmer who want's to learn or re-learn Common Lisp.

wow, SL is the first book I have ever seen that mentions G2 (Appendix A)! I am looking forward to it! I doubt, though, that G2 was "ported" to C, the core is still Lisp, I believe.

You're right about G2 not having been ported to C. According to my best info, Gensym maintains the source in Lisp and uses a commercial Lisp-to-C translator for delivery. The book contains this correction, and many others.
