In the last code block on page 41, “(:refer joy.ch1)” should be “(:refer joy.ch2)”

It’s output should be “The current namespace is joy.yet-another”, not “The current namespace is $”. This is consistent with the output found on page 39 (ie: “The current namespace is joy.ch2″).

Also, the next code block (the first on page 42) refers to joy.ch1. “:refer joy.ch1″ should be “:refer joy.ch2″.

On page 178, I find figure 9.1 a bit confusing. I wonder if it originally mirrored a listing that was changed? Should joy.nc/authors be joy.ns/authors? I would like more context for the ‘Date prefix as well.

On page 150, the first sentence of the last para doesn’t seem to agree with the listing. It says: “From the y-x point [0 0] the cost of travelling 5 right and 5 down given an estimated cost step-cost-est is 9000.” Should it be “… step-cost-est of 900 is 7200″? Possibly I’ve just misunderstood what it’s trying to say though.

Any, great book, best programming book I’ve read in a long time!
