Social discussion of CS in K-12

["Avigail Snir" <avigail AT snir.org>]

The idea of a hardcover book about programming looks strange. Right now it looks like invitation to learn how to swim by correspondence. I would rather see a version where the reader/learner is an active participant in the medium it is geared for. But, I may go for it if she tells me more about the book in addition to her look and bubbly persona.
