Synopsis

"Clojure Essentials"Clojure Essentials is a comprehensive guide to the principles, techniques, and advanced topics that define modern Clojure development. Beginning with Clojure's origins in the Lisp family, the book delivers a rich exploration of its functional foundations, syntax, and the philosophy of immutability. Through practical explanations of the REPL-driven workflow, namespaces, and persistent data structures, readers will gain foundational mastery and a deep appreciation for Clojure's elegant approach to software engineering.The book systematically addresses the core elements of Clojure programming, from working with sequences and custom data types to mastering abstractions, code reuse, and meta-programming with macros. In-depth coverage is given to state management, concurrency primitives, and JVM-based parallelism, offering both the theoretical underpinnings and pragmatic guidance needed to build correct, consistent, and high-performance systems. Special attention is paid to interoperability with Java, ClojureScript, and multi-language architectures, empowering developers to integrate Clojure into diverse technical environments.Beyond core language topics, Clojure Essentials leads readers through essential practices in development, automated testing, optimization, and robust application architecture. Advanced chapters tackle cloud-native patterns, microservices, streaming data, and distributed systems, while forward-looking sections examine schema evolution, DSL construction, and key trends within the vibrant Clojure ecosystem. Whether you are a seasoned functional programmer or a newcomer to the language, this book offers a thorough, insightful roadmap to creating resilient, maintainable, and scalable applications with Clojure.

Tokens - The Future of Money in...

Rachel O’Dwyer

Wherever you look, money is being replaced by tokens. Digital platforms are issuing new kinds of money-like things, from phone credit, to shares, gift vouchers, game tokens, and customer data. These tokens are used to turn invisible stuff into assets, to pay wages, to track purchases, and to program and specify the terms of financial and political access and inclusion. What does it mean when online platforms become the new banks? What new types of control and discrimination emerge when money is tied to specific apps, or actions, politics, or identities? 
 
 
 
By exploring the history of experiments in extra-monetary economies, O'Dwyer shows that private and grassroots tokens have always ghosted the real economy. But as the large tech platforms issue new money-like instruments, tokens are suddenly everywhere. Amazon's Turk workers getting paid in gift cards. Online streamers trading in wish lists. Gamers working for virtual gold. Coined memes selling for thousands. Bitcoin, gift cards, NFTs, customer data, and game tokens are the new money in an evolving economy. This challenges the balance of power between online empires and the state. For platforms, tokens can be an extra-regulatory sleight of hand. But for everyday users, workers, and online subcultures, tokens can also be subversive, a way of imagining what money could be, now and in the future.

Cancer - A Very Short...

Nick James

In 1961 John F. Kennedy pledged to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade. Nine years later, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon. Ten years later, Richard Nixon echoed this pledge by declaring a "war" on cancer. More than thirty years later, however, cancer remains one of the largest causes of death worldwide, with around one in three developing the disease. Curing cancer is not "rocket science," but the question is, why has cancer proved to be harder to tackle than the moon landings turned out to be? 
 
 
 
Cancer research is a major economic activity. There are constant improvements in treatment techniques that result in better cure rates and increased quality and quantity of life for those with the disease, yet stories of breakthroughs in a cure for cancer are often in the media. 
 
 
 
In this Very Short Introduction Nick James, founder of the CancerHelp UK website, examines the trends in diagnosis and treatment of the disease, as well as its economic consequences. Asking what cancer is and what causes it, he considers issues surrounding expensive drug development, what can be done to reduce the risk of developing cancer, and the use of complementary and alternative therapies.
