Review title: Impressed
Product review: Finally I found out why people like Stallman consider Lisp the most 'powerful' language in existence. This book does a very good job explaining the mode of thinking that lisp programmers use; in other words, it's a very introspective book.It is aimed at people who know how to use the language already; for an intro, you may wish to look at his book _ANSI Common Lisp_.About macros: It is an important feature of the language. If you eventually decide that macros are harmful, it is best to been shown macros' full strength so you can make such an informed decision.If you don't know what macros are, they're just sort of a shorthand you define, that gets expanded to its full form. It may be a bad idea to use often in normal programming for languages like C or Java, but Lisp is sufficiently different that macros may be very useful in making code that generates more code.
