My perspective: I'm reading that book and seems good so far but I'm not a complete newbie and I've already used Clojure for writing some (small) web applications. If you want a more beginner-friendly introduction before delving into web programming, I've found very good these books:
* [Clojure Programming](http://www.clojurebook.com/) by Cemerick, Grand and Carper. This generally considered the best introductory book on Clojure: it's fairly big but covers basics, functional programming and a bunch of practical considerations (testing, database access and, yes, web programming). * [Programming Clojure, 2nd edition](http://pragprog.com/book/shcloj2/programming-clojure) by Stuart Halloway and Aaron Bedra. This is much shorter and I found it very good. Alternatively, there are a lot of good and free resources for learning it. On the top of my mind: * [Clojure For The Brave And True](http://www.braveclojure.com/) * [Hitchhiker's Guide to Clojure](http://hitchhikersclojure.com/) * [Clojure From The Ground Up](http://aphyr.com/posts/301-clojure-from-the-ground-up-welcome) * http://www.creativeapplications.net/tutorials/introduction-to-clojure-part-1/ Hope it helps, Manuel Il giorno mercoledì 19 febbraio 2014 16:54:25 UTC+1, Erlis Vidal ha scritto: > > Hi all, > > Have any of you read the book *Web Development with Clojure*? > > > http://www.amazon.com/Web-Development-Clojure-Build-Bulletproof/dp/1937785645 > > There's only one review on amazon, and it's a fantastic review but I'm > wondering if this is the book I should read if I wanted to start using > Clojure for web programming. > > Any advice will be greatly appreciated. > > Thanks, > Erlis > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
