Not a book, but an interesting self-guided course and apparently a great way to pick up a new language: Make A Lisp [0],[1],[2] Basically, work through building a lisp interpreter in any given language (C, Java,...bash, vimscript) in 10 steps. Each step is backed by tests, and these tests help to guide you through the process. Very cool.
