## Description

Common LISP: The Language (HP Technologies) - Kindle edition by Steele, Guy. Download it once and read it on your Kindle device, PC, phones or tablets. Use features like bookmarks, note taking and highlighting while reading Common LISP: The Language (HP Technologies).

Review: Everything the reviewers have said is true (both good and bad) - This is not a book to use for learning LISP - however, it's what I used to learn it. As a learning tool, the book was indispensable. As a text on computer languages, it's a classic. As an entertaining read, well, nerds will love it. I did. Other writers of the genre would do well to emulate Steele's writing style and conversational style. If you are put off by the lack of examples, you can download the excellent free ebook, "On Lisp" by Paul Graham, and use his examples.
Review: Five Stars - Remains the most complete guide to the language

This is not a book to use for learning LISP - however, it's what I used to learn it. As a learning tool, the book was indispensable. As a text on computer languages, it's a classic.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars
*by P***I on January 22, 2017*

Remains the most complete guide to the language

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still a great reference
*by B***R on April 6, 2000*

While you can use the online ANSI HyperSpec, there are still several Common Lisps which are not fully conformant, and used CLtL/2 as their base. For these Lisps, this book is a must. In general, I think this book makes a much better reference than the HyperSpec, and I don't think any other book I've seen can compare. GLS is a terrific writer - very clear with a dry sense of humor that pervades the book, and has a number of useful examples. While there are many parts of Common Lisp that can be difficult to comprehend at first glance (e.g., backquotes) GLS's presentation brings a clarity to the effort that makes it a pleasure to read (and in the case of FORMAT, read again and again! ;-) Read the index carefully for additional humor!
