from the self-post dept.

Has anybody read this book? High expectations given that it is a new book written by Sussman, the author of SICP.

The book just came out yesterday so it'll probably be a while before we get reviews. I checked on Amazon, they won't even have stock for another week to ship out to customers.

How about "Flexible Software Design (2005)" [0]? No feedback at all in this book, but the contents seem interesting.

The Indigo store has a free preview of the first few pages of the book, including the table of contents. Amazon might have a free preview for the Kindle version as well. Click on "Buying Options" on the book's website and follow the links.
