Ask HN: About SICP book

3 pointsby enrmarcalmost 11 years ago
I don&#x27;t know where to post this kind of question, but since SICP (Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs) is a computer science related book, I though maybe here I would get an answer. So, I want to buy the book and Amazon says it has 683 pages. A paperback version would be ok? I mean, in terms of paper quality. I bought recently the book &quot;JavaScript The Definitive Guide&quot; (more than 1000 pages) and the paperback version sucks. Anyone has the Amazon paperback version of SICP?<p>(The hardcover is a little expensive for me). (I know that I can read the online version for free, but I want the physical book).

I have the paperback. It&#x27;s just fine. If you&#x27;re happy with an ebook, it&#x27;s available for free.
