I think that author sin't quite right there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haskell_%28programming_language%29 Haskell (pronounced /ˈhæskəl/) is a standardized, general-purpose purely functional programming language, with *non-strict* semantics and strong static typing. Haskell is great because of non-strictness.
