Thanks. I'm assuming Common Lisp is a suitable language? Not sure which ones you would consider pure, other than Scheme or Haskell.

Not pure as such, just something you can get the concepts from without to much language specific stuff or at to high a level. Don't think I'm the best person to suggest though having started with PHP in my teens, then only really had my mind opened up to proper CS when I got to uni.
