Book Description
When it comes to learning and using a new language you need an effective guide to be by your side when things get rough. For Clojure developers, these recipes have everything you need to take on everything this language offers.
This book is divided into three high impact sections. The first section gives you an introduction to live programming and best practices. We show you how to interact with your connections by manipulating, transforming, and merging collections. You'll learn how to work with macros, protocols, multi-methods, and transducers. We'll also teach you how to work with languages such as Java, and Scala.
The next section deals with intermediate-level content and enhances your Clojure skills, here we'll teach you concurrency programming with Clojure for high performance. We will provide you with advanced best practices, tips on Clojure programming, and show you how to work with Clojure while developing applications.
In the final section you will learn how to test, deploy and analyze websocket behavior when your app is deployed in the cloud. Finally, we will take you through DevOps. Developing with Clojure has never been easier with these recipes by your side!

Makoto Hashimoto is an IT architect based in Japan. He has been involved in a lot of projects as an architect and has led them successfully with an agile development style. Makoto loves functional programming languages and became an enthusiast of Clojure since his first encounter with this language. His current interest lies in the big data domain, and he constantly thinks up new ways to use Clojure for data science. He loves spending time with his family during weekends and apart from that he loves cooking, classical music, arts and sports.
Nicolas Modrzyk currently holds the post of CTO and head of consulting for Karabiner Software, Tokyo. He also heads the firm Bonjournico Software, where he advises start-ups on short development cycles and new technologies to market fast but in a relaxed manner. Nicolas is fond of solving problems and has enjoyed a renewed enlightenment with Clojure and functional programming in general. Living in Japan, he has published an introductory book on Clojure Programming in Japanese-with crossed legs and green tea!
Away from the computer, he is also father of two awesome daughters and spends a great amount of time playing music with great people.
