Get the complete Clojure picture you’ve been looking for, rather than dozens of puzzle pieces you must assemble yourself. Discover how to use Clojure in the real world, and unlock the speed and power of this beautiful language.

First, explore the core concepts of Clojure development: model your domain with immutable data; choose the ideal collection; and write simple, pure functions for efficient transformation. Next, apply those core concepts to build applications: discover how Clojure manages state and identity, spread your work for concurrent programming, and create and assemble components. Finally, see how to manage external integration and deployment concerns by developing a testing strategy, connecting with other data sources, and getting your libraries and applications out the door.

Go beyond the toy box and into Clojure’s way of thinking.

“Starting your first Clojure job? Kicking off your first big open source Clojure project? This book points you to the things you need to know.”
