Programming in Common LISP
Lisp is the second oldest computer language still in everyday use (the oldest if FORTRAN). Lisp was designed to make it possible to compute with abstract symbols rather than with numbers, and was used to do symbolic algebra. This book is about writing good programs in LISP. The dialect chosen to illustrate both LISP and good LISP is Common LISP. It is designed to be used in order, and it makes a fast-paced course (a single quarter) for enthusiastic undergraduates or graduate students with previous programming experience in a modern computer language. It both introduces Common LISP and shows how to write efficient and beautiful programs in it.

Common LISP
The defacto standard - a must-have for all LISP programmers. In this greatly expanded edition of the defacto standard, you'll learn about the nearly 200 changes already made since original publication - and find out about gray areas likely to be revised later. Written by the Vice- Chairman of X3J13 (the ANSI committee responsible for the standardization of Common Lisp) and co-developer of the language itself, the new edition contains the entire text of the first edition plus six completely new chapters. They cover: - CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System, with new features to support function overloading and object-oriented programming, plus complete technical specifications * Loops, a powerful control structure for multiple variables * Conditions, a generalization of the error signaling mechanism * Series and generators * Plus other subjects not part of the ANSI standards but of interest to professional programmers. Throughout, you'll find fresh examples, additional clarifications, warnings, and tips - all presented with the author's customary vigor and wit.
