Hi,
I have read the book myself, and it is not a book that claims "I will teach you seven languages in seven weeks", but the author introduces the reader to basic concepts in each language (prototypal inheritance, functional programming) and shows some aspects where each language has its advantages, e.g. concurrency, logical rules.
That said, the title may be misleading.
Best regards, Thomas

I was flicking through it in Foyles bookshop yesterday and thought of many of the discussions we've had here of late. The style and content seem somewhat tuned to a web POV, but I think Pders would find something interesting. Just wondered if anyone else had read more because I'm tempted to buy it.
