   Ok, one more silly question.  It just occurred to me that three out of
   four books on the above to-read list have forewords written by Guy
   Steele:
   
   1. The Little Lisper
   2. Effective Java

   3. The Seasoned Schemer.
   
   A quick Google search turned up two more titles:
   
   4. A Hacker's Delight:
      http://www.hackersdelight.org/foreword.pdf
   
   5. The New Hacker's Dictionary.
   
   Both of them are books that I would like to have on my bookshelf.  Are
   there any other books to which Guy Steele wrote a foreword or
   afterword?
   
   
I have also written forewords for:

  Springer and Friedman.  Scheme and the Art of Programming.
  MIT Press, 1989.
  
  Koschman, Timothy D.  The Common Lisp Companion.  Wiley, 1989.
  
  Tatar, Deborah G.  A Programmer's Guide to Common Lisp.
  Digital Press, 1986.
  
  Loshin, David.  High Performance Computing Demystified.
  AP Professional, 1994.
