A great book for a good read - thoroughly recommended on principal but I think this specific request calls for something a bit more fundamental to the task of acquiring that programming language.

Well, if the 'specific request' had been in any way shape or form 'specific', maybe. It wasn't, so I recommended something that's a great hacker book in any case:-)
