How to Design Programs

I finished reading of this book today
IMHO it`s totally useless book in the same row with Design Patterns and Clean Code

• The book about recursive functions even does not refer to master theorem ! Epic fail
• It seems that functional style of thinking has some serious problems. For example task from chapter 41.3 can be easily solved without incapsulating list of cards inside closure - you just need to swap old first card to the second position:
  (local ((define old-card (make-hand (hand-rank a-hand) (hand-suite a-hand) (hand-next a-hand))))
(begin (set-hand-rank! a-hand rank)
       (set-hand-suite! a-hand suite)
       (set-hand-next! a-hand old-card))) 

Also this books won`t teach you how to program with scheme bcs it doesn't describe

• macros
• lazyness
• errors processing
• continuation
• hash tables
• etc etc
