In general, I have considered the difference between Aquamacs and GNU
Emacs to be that the former prioritizes computer-user interaction via
mouse, command-bars and menus (which requires a lot of hand movement
between keyboard and mouse, but enables the user to dispense with

Probably, yes. I installed it last year and I seem to recall some
native chrome and a menubar - but then folks recommended using Emacs

Lee's comments ring true for me so let me extend them.
Before I discovered Clojure, my experience as a programmer had been
mainly in the area of artificial-intelligence experimental programming.
I was once a reasonably proficient Lisp programmer, but pre-CL and
pre-CLOS, that is, mainly using

Well, if you already know CL and can understand bit of Java (for
interop), you're good to go!!!
Make sure you know about Clojure's immutable data-structures before
anything else...this is the BIG difference between Clojure vs CL
(Clojure wins here!) other than that, prepare yourself for a wond

PAIP*, *On Lisp*, *Let Over Lambda*, and written several "real world" CL
applications and taught the principles of FP using Racket as a TA.
Now I'm looking to learn Clojure. What would be the best resource
