For Clojure, there's the Clojure Data Analysis Cookbook[0] and Clojure for Machine Learning[1]. Both on my reading list.

There is also the sequel to the Clojure Data Analysis Cookbook, Mastering Clojure Data Analysis[0].

While I don't know for certain I'm going to theorize the Haskell Data Analysis Cookbook began as a Haskell version of the Clojure books since they've were written by a student and professor, respectively, at UVA.

Both of the Clojure books are excellent - you can look at them as a practical hands on way of learning Clojure as an experienced programmer. I'm familiar with Nishant's excellent quality of work so I imagine the Haskell Data Analysis Cookbook would help a curious programmer learn practical Haskell. (I intend to pick up a copy for just this purpose.)
