That's an excellent suggestion. One of my best "introduction to Lisp for programmers" is ANSI Common Lisp by Paul Graham. He manages to give a pretty good idea of what Lisp development looks like with very clear examples and pointers to the CL reference. Also, one of the things that I think is missing from the Introduction is exercises. There should be much more of them that help the user explore the possibilities of what has been learned. ANSI Common Lisp and SICP are both very good examples of what can be done in that regard.
