Lisp is a fantastic language and well worth learning.

But these days I pick a language with strong static types every time if I have the choice. I know you can use them with Lisp too to some extent but it's not the same as a language built from the ground up around types.




Totally. I had been thinking about writing a Haskell book but it seems that space is maybe well covered lately.
