Hallo, What real helped me to start thinking in "The Clojure Way" are the Talks that Rich gave. You can find some of them here http://clojure.blip.tv/posts?view=archive&nsfw=dc
I think you should check out the "Clojure for Lisp Porgrammers Part 1 and 2". In talks he goes deeper because he does not have to explain al the Basics of Lisp (like he head to in "Clojure for Java Programmer") The others like "Clojure Sequences", "Clojure Data Structures" or "Clojure Concurrency" and the really interesting too. Then there are a couple of talks online on InfoQ. Here some links I looked up but there is more. http://www.infoq.com/interviews/hickey-clojure http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Are-We-There-Yet-Rich-Hickey On 27 Mai, 13:53, Paul Moore <p.f.mo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > I'm new to Clojure, and looking for the best way to get going.
