I read this on page 51 of the book 'Clojure for the Brave and True':

Another feature that differentiates special forms is that you can’t use
> them as arguments to functions.

So, I expected the following code to fail:

(+ (if (> 2 1) 10 1) 1)

since I used the 'if' special form as an argument to the '+' function. 
However, the code runs and returns 11.

What does the quote really mean?
