That rarest of things

A new book on Smalltalk! Well, new as of June 2005. I knew of the author, Stéphane Ducasse, before this book came out because he went through a lot of effort to get various authors' approvals to offer up many older Smalltalk books for free. This was and still is a valuable resource for me as I'm learning Smalltalk.

He's recently had a book published called Squeak: Learn Programming with Robots. It's aimed primarily at teaching coding to kids, and initial opinions on Amazon are good so far. It may not be too applicable to what I'm doing, but I hope for his sake that the books sells well. If you know anyone, young or old, who wants to learn coding, this may be a good place to start!
