It hasn't been written yet, although Winston & Horn (1st edition, using MACLISP
rather than Common Lisp) and Abelson & Sussman came close.

Rich Alderson   You know the sort of thing that you can find in any dictionary
                of a strange language, and which so excites the amateur philo-
                logists, itching to derive one tongue from another that they
                know better: a word that is nearly the same in form and meaning
                as the corresponding word in English, or Latin, or Hebrew, or
                what not.
