What shocked me about SICP was the persuasiveness of the introduction, even after years of programming. And it's much closer to the author's writing than the cut-n-dry O'Reilly stuff. I like it anyway :)

It's not just the poor and isolated areas. Islamabad is rife with conspiracy theorists who think every mishap in Pakistan has a CIA agent involved somehow.
