I don't know how to convey that the thing linked is a book, or that it concerns programming in general with Emacs Lisp as the language, or that it is aimed at non-programmers, without changing the title. I wasn't really worried about it until the first commenter seemed to mistake the OP for a different kind of thing than it is. That's when I edited the title. :-\ If the FSF shop weren't closed at the moment, maybe I'd link to the shop page for the print version.

I don't know how to convey that the thing linked is a book, or that it concerns programming in general with Emacs Lisp as the language, or that it is aimed at non-programmers, without changing the title. That's really easy, you put it in a comment and use the original title.
