The best book on programming for the layman is "Alice in Wonderland"; but that's because it's the best book on anything for the layman. Alan Perlis
In the checkered area of human experience the seasons are all mingled as in the golden age: fruit and blossom hang together; in the same moment the sickle is reaping and the seed is sprinkled; one tends the green cluster and another treads the winepress.
