I heard some rumors on the web that some classic Lisp books are going to be ported to Clojure, but I forgot which.

Which books will be indeed ported to Clojure? Does this involve the complete text or only the code files?

Why is Lisp useful?

Lisp obviously is an advantage for the AI stuff but it doesn't appear to me that Lisp is any faster than Java, C#, or even C.
