我推荐 Simon Lewis 写的《The Art and Science of Smalltalk》。正因为年代久远，Smalltalk 做事的方式和其他开发环境大相径庭。以今天的标准来看它的 GUI 很怪异（Smalltalk 正是 Xerox 开发 GUI 的原因——你……
I'd recommend "The Art and Science of Smalltalk" by Simon Lewis. Because it's so old, Smalltalk does things very differently to other development environments. The GUI is strange by today's standards (Smalltalk was why Xerox developed the GUI - you…

……Goldberg 本人，最后几章（26-30）包含了用 Smalltalk 本身作为实现语言构建一个基础、标准的 VM 的蓝图（即所谓的“蓝皮书 VM”）。我认为《The Art and Science of Smalltalk》也写得挺好，只是有些过时而且是针对 VisualWorks 的。关于 MVC 的那部分尤其有意思，特别是如果你的理解最初是由 RoR 和其他 Web 框架塑造的话。
…Goldberg herself, and the last few chapters (26-30) contain the blueprint for a basic, canonical VM using Smalltalk itself as the implementation language (referred to as the "blue book VM"). I think The Art and Science of Smalltalk is quite good also, but outdated and VisualWorks-specific. The section on MVC is particularly interesting, especially if your understanding of it was shaped by RoR and other web frameworks.
