"Very high information density." - by MK on 18-OCT-2011
Reviewer Rating:
A book with very high information density. One of the best books I have read in the last couple of years. Not for Clojure/functional programming beginners, I highly recommend you to start with something like Practical Clojure (from Apress) or Clojure Programming (from O'Reilly).

"Must read for Clojure programmers" - by Alex Ott on 20-JUL-2011
Reviewer Rating:
Very interesting book on 'advanced' Clojure programming, discussing questions of clojurish programs design, optimizations, correct and optimal use of data structures.
I highly recommend this book for all, who already studied some Clojure programming (because this book premise, that you have Clojure experience) and wants to make your Clojure skills much better

I probably picked the wrong book to start off learning Clojure. From the tutle of the book, it looks like it might be one of those head first books that would be fun to read but in reality, not too much.

The book starts off like any other book, with some introduction to the basic of Clojure. Then it went on to other topics in a hurry, leaving me feel that there should be more coverage and explanation around the basic.

This book might be a good read if one already know Clojure and familiar with the syntax. But not a good read for first time learner.  The Practical Clojure seems to be a better read for first timer.
