Just getting started and love your style so far. One comment on the "evaluator birds" example that begins on page 9 with this line of code: (+ 1 (- 3 2)). Note that the + 1 and the (-3 2) both evaluate to 1, this makes it a little less clear later on in the example, when you are showing the evaluators broken out which "one" you are referring to. It would clear things up a bit if you used something like this (+ 4 (- 3 2)). Just a nitpick.

Fixed. Thanks.
