实用 Common Lisp（2005）
Practical Common Lisp (2005)
2016 — 2022，它一次次回到首页
黑点是上首页（≥ 50 分）的那次投稿，空心点是没冲上去的投稿，点越大分数越高。
导读
这是 Peter Seibel 的《Practical Common Lisp》在线版，一本通过实例和项目介绍 Common Lisp 的经典教程，兼具入门与实用示例。该书版权年份为 2003–2005，多年来在 Hacker News 上反复被推荐。
为什么经久不衰：它把 Lisp 的强大能力落在可运行的实例和项目上，且长期免费在线，因此成为跨年代仍值得读的 Common Lisp 入门书。

赞誉作者把 Lisp 文化提炼成了一本典范教材。
Lisp 社区很幸运有 Peter 来写这本书。看他从各种来源中梳理、吸收并内化 Lisp 文化，然后写出这样一本典范性的书分享给大家，令人惊叹。希望他再多写几本。

The Lisp world is really lucky that Peter came along and wrote this book. It was amazing to watch him tease out, soak up, and internalize Lisp culture from all the available sources and then write such a canonical book to share it all with the rest of us. I wish that he would write some more books :).
批评 PCL 偏展示，推荐更循序渐进的教材。
抱歉，我一直不太喜欢 PCL。它确实展示了令人惊叹的 Lisp 技巧，让人对 Lisp 能做什么心生敬畏，但并不能让我对用 Lisp 自己能做什么产生同样感觉；它没有真正帮助读者理解这些代码如何工作到能独立写出的程度。我认为《Lisp, An Interactive Approach》是更好的教学工具，会引导、测试读者并让其写完所需代码再进入下一章。

I'm sorry but I never liked PCL that much. It certainly shows some impressive Lisp techniques, and surely it will impress anyone who reads it about Lisp capabilities. The PCL made me feel awe about what Lisp can do. But not about what I could do with Lisp myself. PCL doesn't really help the reader to really understand how all that code works to the point where the reader could write it without the writer's help. I found this book: Lisp, An Interactive Approach https://www.cse.buffalo.edu/~shapiro/Commonlisp/ a better pedagogical tool to learn Lisp, and it guides the reader all the way, tests him, and makes him write all the needed code before going to the next chapter. It's not a showcase like the PCL book, but it imparts the reader with the ability to write a similar showcase himself. The 'An Interactive Approach' book made me grok the power of Lisp in a way no other book could. It made me feel powerful and confident about what I could do with Lisp.
定位 PCL 为入门加示例，并推荐替代或补充书目。
PCL 是入门加菜谱。学 Common Lisp 和 Lisp，我认为 Paul Graham 的 ANSI Common Lisp 最好，书末的语言参考非常方便；如果只想要纯菜谱，Common Lisp Recipes 更好。

Practical Common Lisp is intro + recipes. I think Paul Grahams ANSI Common Lisp is the best if you are learning Common Lisp and Lisp. The language reference in the end is the extremely handy compact reference for CL. http://www.paulgraham.com/acl.html Common Lisp Recipes is better as a pure recipe book. http://weitz.de/cl-recipes/
提醒书中 Windows 环境过时并提供更新包。
如果在 Windows 上用 PCL，书中链接的 Lispbox 可能早已过时；我制作了更新的便携压缩包。

If anyone is using windows and wants to go through PCL, I believe the lisp box linked to is way out of date. I've generated a portable zips that are more up to date: https://github.com/jasom/lispstick-automate/releases/download/0.1/lispstick-sbcl-1.3.9-emacs-24.5.7z https://github.com/jasom/lispstick-automate/releases/download/0.1/lispstick-sbcl-1.3.9-emacs-24.5.zip
