Oh man. I worked through SICP when I was just starting to program. Little did I know that no other book would be so full of gems and enlightenment like this[0].

Oh man. I worked through SICP when I was just starting to program. Little did I know that no other book would be so full of gems and enlightenment like this[0]. Some of the stuff stopped me dead and caused me to daze off for several minutes. What's amazing is that I feel like I didn't fully "get" a large portion of the book. I could work through it again in a few years and learn something from every page. [0]Other books come close, but the impact of this book will stay with me forever.
