There are tons of programming languages, and even if I've choosen Python for my everyday work, I hope to switch one day to Common Lisp.
Common Lisp you can choose your programmming style :
I'll try to add here some of my experiments with it on this page.
The only book I have is Peter Seibel's Practical Common Lisp. It's avaible online, but I really suggest you to buy the original from APress, because they've done a beautiful work.
"Parentheses? What parentheses? I haven't noticed any parentheses since my first month of Lisp programming. I like to ask people who complain about parentheses in Lisp if they are bothered by all the spaces between words in a newspaper" - Ken Tilton
Clojure maybe the Lisp future.
NewLisp is very interesting : a Lisp-like scripting langage like Python, Ruby and Perl but with macros, and nice features. It's well documented (using the excellent ConTeXt) and very fun to play with.
