review 1: El libro es un curso introductorio e intensivo a Clojure, un dialecto de Lisp que se ejecuta sobre la máquina virtual de Java. Introduce algunos conceptos de programación funcional y expone varias de las ventajas de este paradigma.Los conceptos son expuestos con poca profundidad, es posible que para alguien que no esté familiarizado al menos un poco con POO o funcional no comprenda ciertas partes del libro.
review 2: I read the first version when I was just learning Clojure. I understand that the second version has been considerably revised and am looking forward to readying it. The first version was a good introduction to the basics of a modern functional programming language, very familiar in style and approach to any of the other Pragrmattic Programmers
... morebooks. If I were recommending a book to someone wanting to learn Clojure today, I would recommend the confusingly named, Clojure Programming, from O'Reilly. While both are good books, the second shines at making the functional approach clear. less

A great introduction to the language. A tad out-of-date now, but still generally applicable.

Just started reading, hopefully doesn't require that much Java knowledge
