Great! Thanks for your suggestions. I do come from several years of Java programming and have been digging through Clojure in Action and Joy of Clojure. I was looking for a more general/theoretical book that might give me some deeper insight into Lisp so that I could approach future Clojure programming challenges in interesting ways. Looks like I will be getting it once I graduate from the training wheels.
