I am a novice programmer learning it primarily through How to Design Programmes, 2nd edition. I have to say it is a unique book, as it claims and superbly designed and written. I think any one who wants to learn programming should go through the entire book - if he/she knows it, the progress will be very quick and the result from the basics to the advanced levels will be logical and lay a foundation for a lifetime.
