I worked through this book and I think is a fine way to get your feet wet with C. When I learn a new language, I like learning something else in the way, because language learning tends to be samey once you have gone through a couple. This book was right up my alley, cause you get a sense of language design and the very basics of C. After reading the book I managed to write some cli programs in C, modifying someone else's code. The main caveat about the book: It Is an introduction in both it's topics. I know the bare minimum of C and I could not design a language. Yes, the lisp you build... Well I would not use for anything. But is well written and it has exercises, and I believe exercises is how you learn.
