This book is for you if you’re curious about Common Lisp, regardless of whether you’re already convinced you want to use it or if you just want to know what all the fuss is about.
If you’ve learned some Lisp already but have had trouble making the leap from academic exercises to real programs, this book should get you on your way. On the other hand, you don’t have to be already convinced that you want to use Lisp to get something out of this book.
If you’re a hard-nosed pragmatist who wants to know what advantages Common Lisp has over languages such as Perl, Python, Java, C, or C#, this book should give you some ideas. Or maybe you don’t even care about using Lisp?maybe you’re already sure Lisp isn’t really any better than other languages you know but are annoyed by some Lisper telling you that’s because you just don’t “get it.” If so, this book will give you a straight-to-the-point introduction to Common Lisp. If, after reading this book, you still think Common Lisp is no better than your current favorite languages, you’ll be in an excellent position to explain exactly why.
