Re: Best Book for Clojure
Just to provide my experience in case someone else wanders across this post and finds it helpful, I'm currently reading "Clojure for the Brave and True" and find it a fun and fast read, especially as the examples have equivalents in JS and Ruby which I'm comfortable with. I think it's a good introduction to the language and sets me up to read more in-depth books like Clojure Programming which is next on my reading list.

Re: Best Book for Clojure
I tend to buy every book that comes out... i'm REALLY enjoying Getting Clojure. Very fast and straight forward. It's an easy read but explains a lot fast.

Re: Best Book for Clojure
That's very subjective, but I'd vote for "Joy of Clojure" for understanding ideas behind language design and some idiomatic use cases. I'd not recommend "Clojure Programming" for start, as it's very comprehensive and dives deep into detailes(which was a minus when I was starting with Clojure and wanted some quick wins), so I mostly use it as a language reference in my everyday job. But again, that's all subjective and depends on your experience and learning approach. "Brave and true" also seems to be quick and lightweight starting(and only starting) point, if you're comfortable with all that zombies and vampires in examples which are far from real life. среда, 14 марта 2018 г., 2:44:55 UTC+2 пользователь pbi...@gmail.com написал: > > I want to buy a book. > Which is the best book for clojure? > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
