The title "Lisp from nothing"

doesn't seem to fit with:

"INTENDED AUDIENCE This is not an introduction to LISP."

on page 10.

Nothing as in "from scratch", as opposed to Nothing as in "Visual Basic's NULL".

		Yes, the book is about the bootstrapping of LISP, both in a historical and practical context. Hence "from nothing".

Would you also think that "Energy from Nothing" must be an introductory physics text? :)
