I haven’t seen it in the comments yet, but you can watch Abelson and Sussman teaching the material from this book from recorded lectures in 1986.

I still find their description of how to create and group abstractions in various layers to be useful personally and as a mentor. (In the videos, lesson 3A, 1:07:55)

The Kabbalah joke gets me every time.

Thanks for sharing this. It's crazy to see videos like this and think how these people had no idea what was coming in the future.
