Now to begin the speculation on who the mystery author of the foreward is. Any guesses? I am putting my money on John McCarthy.

  My money's on Yegge: "I used to have lot of open, long-standing concerns about the future of programming and productivity, but my sabbatical last year finally brought me some clojure." http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2010/07/blogger-finger.html http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2010/07/blogger-finger.html

    Oh in that case, I'd buy the book just for the foreword.

      In that case maybe the foreword is half of the book.
