> The 'standard' beginners' book is Leo Brodie's _Starting_Forth_. >It's well written and easy to follow. Another book that I've found good >is _Mastering_Forth_, by Anita Anderson and Martin Tracy. It's almost as >clear as _Starting_Forth_, and it uses the Forth-83 standard, which is nice. >(_Starting_Forth_ uses the F-79 standard, since it was written before '83.) > There is a new, 2nd edition of Brodie's "Starting Forth". I bought it last Saturday, November 8th at the Harvard Coop in Cambridge. It is the first book I have seen with a 1987 copyright. The 2nd edition uses Forth-83 and now includes a real index. Other minor changes. /tom
