Comparing Clojure books
- by Michiel Borkent
Currently there is (afaik) one completed Clojure book available:
Programming Clojure by Stuart Halloway.
Two are being written and partially available at Manning:
The Joy of Clojure by Fogus and Houser
Clojure in Action by Amit Rathore
Another one is about to be published in May:
Practical Clojure (The Definitive Guide) by Luke Van der Hart
Are these books more or less the same and meant as a general introduction to Clojure? Does it make sense to buy them all, or is there a risk of having three very similar books?
Will there be books that go into more specialized areas of Clojure and targetted for 'intermediate' or 'advanced' Clojure programmers?
