I first read this book about a year ago. That time, I was using a lot of C++ and Java. And I thought that Graham was being overly biased with Lisp. Then I starter learning Ruby, Python and also some Perl. Rereading some chapters tonight showed me just how true what Graham says. There is an increasing trend toward languages that can indeed be shaped to fit the application. Ruby on rails is a good example of this.
And finally, I am going to take the plunge and see what Lisp is all about.
