[toronto-lisp] Lisp Macros

[Justin Giancola]

For those interested,

Let Over Lambda was announced on c.l.l. a few months ago:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.lisp/browse_thread/thread/d7ca047957f84399#

Since then a few reviews have cropped up, some favorable
(http://www.adampetersen.se/reviews/letoverlambda.htm) and some not
(http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/6kc4p/new_book_about_common_lisp_let_over_lambda/c043ego).

The book is self-published and available via lulu
(http://stores.lulu.com/letoverlambda).  The author has also made the
first 4 chapters available at http://letoverlambda.com/index.cl/toc
for your perusal, although a few reviewers have remarked that the book
doesn't really shine until after the free chapters.
