I'd love to see an practical Scheme book make it to the bookshelves if for no other reason than to be able to point my friends and co-workers at it.

The Pragmatic Programmers recently published a book on Clojure and O'Reilly has a CL book on the way. It seems to me there'd be interest in PLT Scheme, too, since mainstream programming culture is (very) slowly waking from their Java-Java-Java-Java coma.

A "Dummies" book would probably be enough to justify Scheme. Ironic perhaps?

That's essentially what The Little Schemer is, except without the
insulting title.

Than how about "Practical Scheme" or "Real World Scheme"?
