Maybe one additional thing to note is that the book shows that the Clojure
web development ecosystem is a reflection of its general philosophy and
it's not about any particular framework but more focused on composing
simple components/libraries. Once you understand the basic concepts (HTTP
My experience..
1. It is a well written book. You will have to read sequentially.
2. Prior knowledge of clojure is required -- list, vector, map, let etc.
(Or at least review the clojure summary at the back first).
3. Since I knew Rails before, a lot of the concepts seemed to be straight
It's worth noting that the new Clojure Cookbook also has a chapter that
goes over the basics of Clojure web development. If you already are quite
comfortable with Clojure and don't need to see a lot of extended examples,
the Cookbook chapter covers much of the same ground as the Clojure Web
You're right, Adrian. Brian did a nice job on this. He talks to the
reader, like a normal person trying to share his passion, not an academic.

I just wanted to share my experience, I don't know if it's relatable to
your current situation.
I picked it up last weekend because I needed to put together a very
quick web application for work, and I'd previously considered doing it
in Clojure, but was dissuaded because it looked like there

For what it worth... I bought this book because I thought it would be a
great way for me to learn Clojure. I am familiar with web frameworks such
as Rails and Play, but didn't know much about Clojure.
Unfortunately, it proved too difficult for me to follow because Clojure is
way different from
It’s a great book, but require you to play with the code when you read the book.

My perspective: I'm reading that book and seems good so far but I'm not a

delving into web programming, I've found very good these books:

Thanks for the suggestions. Ton of good information in a couple of emails.

Like others have said it's not a beginners book, you definitely need to
have learned clojure through another resource or maybe at the same time if
your brain will allow.
I will say it's worth the buy, currently there aren't many web development
books for clojure which cover topics for someone
