English has conventions for keeping "minor words" in titles as lowercase 
(which I understand is different to European language).

(upcase-initials "an introduction to programming in emacs lisp")
=> "An Introduction To Programming In Emacs Lisp"

"an introduction to programming in emacs lisp"
(title-case-region)
=> "An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp"
