Rated The Common Lisp Condition System: Beyond Exception Handling with Control Flow Mechanisms 6/10

I found the book hard going. The subject matter was interesting but I felt like it got stuck in Chapter 2.<br/>Then by the time I finished that chapter I had lost interest. The book could have used more discussion of the condition system in practice, which received a short 2 pages at the end of the book. <br/><br/>Going in I was hoping to get a good introduction to the unique features of the condition system and how to apply it in building a CommonLisp system. Instead I got a book about implementing a condition system in CommonLisp and less about how to apply it in practice.
