How to Design Worlds (2008) [pdf] (brown.edu)

I skimmed through and didn't find anything inspiring. Videos for exercises look awful and not at all fun. I'm learning another lisp to be able to design an interactive world, so I expected more from this title.


From my memory, this is meant to be more introductory material for people first learning computer science, rather than a guide for people who are attempting to learn a lisp. My school (UBC) uses Racket and this book as the intro level CS course.


Ha, DrScheme! That brings back memories.
