Book Description
Clojure is a general-purpose language from the Lisp family with an emphasis on functional programming. It has some interesting concepts and features such as immutability,gradual typing,thread-safe concurrency primitives,and macro-based metaprogramming,which makes it a great choice to create modern,performant,and scalable applications.
This learning path aims at unleashing the true potential of the Clojure language so you can use it in your projects. It begins with installing and setting up the Clojure environment before moving on to explore the language in depth. You’ll get acquainted with its various features such as functional programming,concurrency,reducers,transducers,core.async and core.logic,and so on with a great level of detail.
Moving on,you’ll also learn how to enhance performance using Java interoperability and JVM-specific features from Clojure; you’ll even master language features such as asynchronous channels,actors,logic programming,reactive programming,metaprogramming,and so on.
This learning path combines some of the best that Packt has to offer in one complete,curated package. It includes content from the following Packt products:

Eduardo Díaz
Eduardo Díaz is a developer with a strong background in the Java language. He has a passion for functional programming and new programming paradigms. His work includes full stack development,systems design,and high volume real time data processing.
He has worked on every technology related problem you can imagine,as a consultant solving anything related to Java,UNIX,C,or any other strange problem you might have had.
As a developer,he has been working for around 10 years on Java,Python,Scala,Clojure,in the media,bank,and primarily communications industries.
He is currently working at Grupo Expansion,a media company,where he helps design and implement a new content delivery platform aiming to empower content editors and encourage developers to find new ways to use data.
Shantanu Kumar
Shantanu Kumar is a software developer living in Bengaluru,India. He works with Concur Technologies as a principal engineer,building a next-generation stack in Clojure. He started learning computer programming when he was at school,and has dabbled in several programming languages and software technologies. Having used Java for a long time,he discovered Clojure in early 2009 and has been a fan of it ever since.
When not busy with programming or reading up on technical stuff,he enjoys reading non-fiction and cycling around Bengaluru. Shantanu is an active participant in The Bangalore Clojure Users Group,and contributes to several open source Clojure projects on GitHub. He is also the author of the first edition of the book Clojure High Performance Programming,Packt Publishing.
