Learn what many Java programmers have recently discovered: the Clojure language offers a practical alternative for solving demanding problems, using existing Java libraries, frameworks, and services. With this book, you get a solid grounding in Clojure fundamentals, based on the environments you already familiar with-whether you're working with data, concurrency, application interfaces, or other challenges. Learn how this JVM language can make your work simpler and help you be more productive. Clojure Programming demonstrates the language's flexibility and wide use by taking a Java project and converting it to Clojure. This in-depth look also shows Ruby and Python developers that Closure is just as expressive and sophisticated with one added advantage: all the resources of the JVM. * Learn how to switch to Clojure without losing your investment in the Java platform * Understand the advantages of Clojure as a dialect of the Lisp language * Discover how this language works in several problem domains * Apply it in different data environments, including big data solutions with Hadoop * Use Clojure as a scripting language, a driver for Swing/SWT interfaces, and other functions * Deploy large web applications across tens or hundreds of nodes with Clojure
Brian Carpe r是一位心理学研究领域的专业程序员，用Clojure从事数据分析与web开发。他开发过一个把Clojure代码转化为CSS代码的编译器以及一个操作关系型数据库的类库，经常在briancarper.net上发表Clojure文章。
Christophe Grand是一个独立顾问，现居法国里昂。他主要从事Clojure培训与编码，参与了Clojure语言的开发，撰写过Enlive和 Moustache类库，也是Counterclockwise——Clojure IDE for Eclipse的贡献者，经常在clj-me.cgrand.net上发表有关Clojure的文章。
Clojure的Special forms：
Code Blocks: do 顺序执行并返回最后一个的值
e.g. let expressions provide an implicit do context to their bodies
Defining Vars: def
defn, defn-, defprotocol, defonce, defmacro
deftype, defrecord, defmethod
Local Bindings: let 可以理解为声明局部变量，但在FP里要称为‘名字绑定’
vs binding macro：which controls scoped thread-local variables
_
＊Destructuring (let, Part 2) 支持类似Erlang/Scala/Python的模式匹配
(let [[x y z] v] (+ x z)) 累加第1,3个参数
优点：当你能够描述一个数据容器的结构时，你可以直接提取其元素，而不需要自己写额外代码（？）
Creating Functions: fn
defn：def + fn
简写法（Function literals）：#(Math/pow % %2) 等价于 #(Math/pow %1 %2) 不能递归嵌套（显然，如果允许则有名字冲突问题无法解决）
Conditionals: if
when, cond, if-let, when-let,
Looping: loop and recur
Referring to Vars:... (查看原文)
Michael Fogus and Chris Houser have inspired us in many ways large and small. One
of the smaller ways was the style and presentation of the REPL interactions in their
Clojure book, The Joy of Clojure, which we shamelessly copied and iterated. (查看原文)

那本《Programming Clojure》还是讲得太少了

One thing I don't like about Clojure/Lisp is that they see dynamic types as traditions(elegance), well, it definitely makes them harder to use.

翻了下，更适合作为 reference book。
