Is it possible that some books have been missed due to acronyms employed in comments?

E.g:

- SICP: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs

- CTM: Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming

- TAOP: The Art of Prolog

If the comment contained a link to amazon, then no. If only the title was mentioned then yes.

I was thinking the same thing, there was no way that SICP wasn't in that list, because its probably one of the best programming books written. And no matter who I recommend the book to, they say the same thing.
