Easy to compile (most implementations of Lisp are written almost or entirely in Lisp, and the “reference” implementations usually include a compiler – see Sussmann's Scheme book or 'LiSP in Small Pieces' for examples). It was written by someone who knows his stuff and knows how to teach it. À�Lisp in Small Pieces』より.

An _environment_ assoicates entities with names. Do any of these topics have better books?
