I wish we had this when I was taking Comp Sci in High school in 1991 -- we were stuck with BASIC, Pascal and Oberon of all things. How I would have loved someone to explain AMB/Prolog to me back then (just had a copy of Turbo Prolog and a reference book) -- And here in SICP they go and basically implement it in an hour of video! Awesome. These are amazing videos and a really excellent complement to the SICP book.
