More people should really read this book. Its great that functional programing is on the rise, but the shitty object systems of C++ and Java have poisoned OOP in most people's mind. CLOS is an awesome object system and TAOTMP really highlights what you can do with a good object system.
Functional programing is still awesome, but for high-level work I think the multiparadigm languages like Scala, Swift, and CL are the way to go.
