A friend calls it "the most popular book that nobody has read," but maybe that was more accurate in the 90s.

SICP? SICP is actually readable and quite interesting. I did it. And it is not nearly as widely known as TAP in the outer world.

I actually have a modified version of SICP being used as a textbook for one of my classes -- it's called Composing Programs.
