It sounds like you're at the perfect moment to hit up _The Joy of Clojure_. The second edition came out recently, so it should be nicely current. My copy of 2e is on my in-pile, so I can't yet comment specifically on the updates, but its approach is aimed directly at what you seem to be looking for: why Clojure is Clojure, and what you can do about it. http://joyofclojure.com/ Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
