    The unsung engineering school in Boston. Tough to get any love when MIT is a few T stops away. Right on.

    This is probably a bad comparison to make but I am curious, apropos SICP, how does this book stack up? I notice right off the bat they're using Lisp.

    Anyone who's read through this, do you think it's still valuable if you're already working through SICP?

    Has this book received major updates lately? It has been available in draft form for a while. Many chapters are still empty.

    Is it out in book form yet or are they still growing it?

    the first 7 chapters of the 2nd edition cover chapters 1-4 of the 1st edition minus the parts that discuss imperative code
