+     "Emacs Lisp Elements is a book written by Protesilaos Stavrou, providing a big
+picture view of the @acronym{Elisp, Emacs Lisp} programming language by
+combining prose with code.  This book aims to provide an idea of how Elisp
+works by showing some of the main concepts and patterns encountered in
+everyday Elisp code.
+
+This book is not intended as a replacement for the built-in Emacs Lisp
+Reference Manual, but instead to give readers enough information to reason
+about Elisp code.")
