Can anyone recommend which of Maeder's two books is a better investment 
for someone wishing to learn to program Mma? What's the difference 
between the two?

1) Programming in Mathematica (Second Edition, 1991), 279 pages
2) The Mathematica Programmer (1994), 199 pages

Is 2) a revamped/updated version, thus obsoleting 1)?
