I'm a sucker for anything that takes the "let's learn it by building it" approach, so will definitely pick this up. Looking forward to it!

Glad to hear that! The book starts off with a tutorial about dynamic variables, transfers of control, and lexical closures, and then uses these (along with a few functions and variables) to build a condition system from scratch.
