Hi, I would like to buy some booke on category theory and its applications. Can you recommend me the best?
I got a lot out of Basic Category Theory for Computer Scientists by Benjamin C. Pierce. Short and with examples biased towards CS. No monads but it covers the essentials with F-algebras as a bonus. Finishes with some extended CS-motivated examples. -- Dan
