The
MIT Press Dock Sale is this weekend, and this trip was quite successful from my point of view. I grabbed a copy of
How to Design Programs (
at Amazon) for $7. I also got the
Handbook of Theoretical Computer Science Volume B: Formal Models and Semantics for $5, and just for the hell of it I snagged a copy of Chomsky's
Aspects of the Theory of Syntax for another $5 just because I saw it lying around. Another $5 went towards an MIT Press t-shirt (because more t-shirts mean longer laundry cycles), and that's all I ended up finding that I wanted there.
The regular MIT Press bookstore was having a 20% off sale, and considering that was cheaper than Amazon for what I wanted, I went ahead and grabbed copies of
The Little Schemer and
The Seasoned Schemer to join the copy of
The Reasoned Schemer that was located for me last fall during the dock sale. (I did see some other copies of it around this dock sale as well.)
I need to put
this PhD comic up at my desk.
