Struggling with unnecessary complexity, unmanaged state, and brittle data that’s hard to change? Clojure combines the expressiveness of Lisp with the stability and performance of Java into a practical toolkit for creating simple, extensible applications. With immutable data structures, functional programming, and safe concurrency, Clojure makes it easier to write robust, reusable code. This definitive guide, written by members of the Clojure core team, introduces the language’s essentials and then shows how to put everything together in real applications. This edition adds practical coverage of project tooling and interactive development and fresh examples of the latest Clojure features.

This edition adds two new chapters on project tooling and interactive development, guiding you through modern workflows with tests, builds, editors, and the REPL at the center of your process. Learn how to set up projects, manage dependencies, and work productively in Clojure’s unique interactive style. When you’re finished, you’ll be able to think in Clojure: express solutions with clarity, leverage concurrency safely, and build real-world applications that are simpler and more maintainable than you thought possible.
