Reviews
"Daniel's approach is refreshing because most of the programming books I've read are drier than a camel's fart. We are fortunate that Daniel is a brilliant programmer and writer and that his wife Jess is an equally brilliant illustrator. We are especially fortunate that they both went insane and decided to write a book at exactly the same time."
-Alan Dipert, from the Foreword
"This book is a valuable starting point for exploring Clojure, supplying a coherent and current view of the full landscape."
-Computing Reviews
"I am not the target audience for this book as I not a new Clojure developer, however it was so much fun to read that I read it anyways. If you're looking for a way to start Clojure with fun examples and engaging explanations, I heartily recommend that you check out Clojure for the Brave and True."
-Alex Miller, Clojure developer for Cognitect
"Strike[s] that balance between teaching an advanced topic and making it fun without dumbing it down...highly recommended!"
-Adam Tornhill, programmer, psychologist, and Lisp hacker
