Summary:  This week, the technically curious Andrew Glover interviews Stuart Halloway, co-founder of Relevance, Inc. and the author of Programming Clojure. They discuss the Clojure language and Halloway explains the two main reasons the language has been quickly adopted and is rising rapidly in popularity: It unleashes the power of the JVM and it gives Java programmers the Lisp ability to focus tightly on software development.
