Another good place to start would be Haskell. Real World Haskell is a good book, and there are several resources to get you started on the web (http://learnyouahaskell.com/ http://learnyouahaskell.com/ , http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Haskell/YAHT http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Haskell/YAHT ). I just started immersing myself in RWH (had to take a brief break from it because I switched clients) but I really liked the book. Naturally I agree with apgwoz that SICP is another good place to start if you decide to go with Scheme. It is definitely a book every programmer should read, so you do get two for the price of one ;-) Good luck.
