Here are a few suggestions by me, tried to pick items that will hopefully stand the test of time, one per major publisher:
- Nathan Marz' (of Backtype/Twitter/Storm fame) Big Data (Manning): Don't let the name Big Data make you feel this is only for people with big data needs, in fact Nathan Marz tries to rethink how we store data. Immutable, append-only master data sets and views derived from them.
http://manning.com/marz/
- Martin Kleppmann's Designing Data-Intensive Applications (O'Reilly): http://dataintensive.net/ in beta. "This book will help you navigate the diverse and fast-changing landscape of technologies for storing and processing data. We compare a broad variety of tools and approaches." Martin has been researching for the past year for the book and aim to have a timeless book on the subject.
- Colin Jones' Mastering Clojure Macros: Write Cleaner, Faster, Smarter Code (Pragmatic Bookshelf): This short, but dense book makes macros understandable. Recommended if you want to learn what makes Lisp so powerful. https://pragprog.com/book/cjclojure/mastering-clojure-macros
