Hi, faenvie,
Thanks for your comments about "Practical Clojure," really glad you enjoyed
it!
Unfortunately, it seems unlikely right now that there will be a second
edition of "Practical Clojure" from Apress, but Luke VanderHart and I are
currently working on a second book together. Details to
It depends on the audience I guess. I've bought "Practical Clojure" but I
found its minimalism a little too... minimal to my experience at the time.
I was (an in many ways I still am) a nearly total novice on fp and Clojure,
and although it's a very good and concise introduction to Clojure I don
how about Programming Clojure? I am reading it as a start point of learn

I need to clarify something, since I unintentionally introduced
confusion into this discussion. The initial comment by faenvie
referred to the book "Practical Clojure", a very good book (I own a
copy). I spaced out and thought that faenvie's comment concerned the
newly released "Clojure Programmi

I haven't bothered buying it because it's so out of date now. I'll buy
a second edition when it gets underway, however.
I bought Programming Clojure once the 2nd Ed got under
as i think about it, it seems to me that 'practical clojure' should be
updated but stay minimal. This means strictly keep the focus on the
core of clojure, correct errors, add a few missing things (add more
info on destructuring for instance), add and update things that come
new or changed with clo

I hadn't heard of practical clojure, but while we're praising books,
I'd like to say that Clojure Programming is excellent. I've been
reading the early access version, and while I haven't finished it, I'm
almost done with the first half, which covers the core of the
language. It's been incredibly
I have not read it all (yet), but what I have read is outstanding.
O'Reilly has made the table of contents and first chapter available
online. If you are at all curious, check it out. The first chapter
contains an exceptionally lucid and thorough section on destructuring.

I definitely have. I'm in the middle of trying to port some stats test
from R over to Incanter, notably the Wicoxon Rank Sum test. I just
meant I hope this catches on with statisticians, now that R's creator
has admitted its flaws.

I second faenvie's request for "applications of Clojure" books,
especially on AI. AI is the reason I started looking at a Lisp in the
first place. I'd also like to see Clojure become *the* language for
statistics, though I understand that R statisticians aren't so fond of
Lisps.

Thanks! Glad you liked the book.
