The book is no longer listed with a price, nor is it listed as available, except from other sellers. It looks like the Lisp In Small Pieces for $3.95 craze has met its end. I have developed what I call the “Hawaii” test for a good literate program. I bought Lisp In Small Pieces, read 19 pages, then struck out on my own, writing a headcase macro to factor out the repetition from the SICP code, and an interpreter. What features from R5RS would have to be removed if one wanted a referentially transparent scheme? First, you can take a small piece of cereal like a Cheerio and put it on the roof of your mouth, just behind your teeth. There are exercises you can do to get rid of your lisp. Writing a recursive function to perform that calculation is pretty straight forward, and once we put all of these pieces together in our create-world routine, we have a working proof of concept. In Lisp In Small Pieces, Christian states that assignment, side-effects, and continuations break referential transparency. So one would expect that the probability of buying the "Blue Book" given a purchase of the "Lisp in Small Pieces" would be much higher than the probability of purchasing Harry Potter.

But one, day I found a nice small piece of lisp which allow me simplify the process. See “Lisp in Small Pieces” or “Implementing Elliptic Curve Cryptography” for real literate programs as books. The following code snipped from the REPL prompt We're glossing over a few details here, but if you have a little experience working with Lisp then you should have a pretty good idea of how to implement the above.
