Clojure Review
Book review by Stefano Fago:
This book introduce one of most interesting language of new wave of functional programming. You will find a complete overview of clojure language focusing in functional paradigm that can be the real obstacle for a standard developer. The author try to follow you on learning different subject with a lot of examples but sometimes it need more reflection and time to master some arguments and a syntax that may seems obscure. The book is a good starting point to introduce you to a new way of programming but also to learn some particulars aspect of Java. To consider a complete but not easy reading. However a book to have!

Erlang Book Review
After reading an interesting article on Erlang and Java interoperability, I have decided to dedicate my spare time to Erlang.
O’Reilly has just published a wonderful book on Erlang, so I decided to dive into it.

Producing Open Source Software

Some times ago I have the lucky to read “Producing Open Source Software“:
[...] a book about the human side of open source development. It describes how successful projects operate, the expectations of users and developers, and the culture of free software. The book is released under an open copyright: it is available in bookstores and from the publisher (O’Reilly Media), or you can browse or download it [...]
Valuable parts, which we suggest to read:
Open source is a value, especially here in Italy, where the small consulting firms have no time/ no hope of developing strong commercial reality.
Open source so can be a way for a cheap investiment.
