Don't let the "Clojure" theme scare you

Actually, I use Clojure quite a bit, so that won't scare me at all!

I've already got Programming Clojure (and The Joy of Clojure - not on the list), Structure & Interpretation of Computer Programs and Concepts, Techniques and Models of Computer Programming. Purely Functional Data Structures and How to Solve it have been on my list for a long time too. Some other books that I haven't heard of before on that list look very interesting though!

I didn't really mean that I don't get value from books - I do - just that I find books to be only the first stage of learning and most useful in telling me what it is I don't know, which I then can study and try for myself and its the experimentation and tinkering that actually makes it sink in.
