'How To Design Programs' is a good book, but the site is not functioning at 
the moment.  I was reading the book too, but when you go to the site now, 
it redirects you to some Casino site.

I sent an email to the Rice University Programming Languages Team (PLT) 
yesterday, as members of that team are the authors of the book.  I got a 
response back today saying the domain has been taken over by a squatter, 
but they're working to get it back or find another site for it.
