I don't think a Haskell-monad book would be terribly interesting. A book on
taking the pieces of category theory, with a little bit more of the math, to
apply to Haskell would be greatly interesting to me.
Also a book on learning what to look for for measuring Haskell performance
in space and time + optimization seems like it'd be a good thing to have as
well.
Monad in itself is really simple. Some of the implementations of Monad can
be a little mind bending at times, but the Monad itself is not really that
complicated.

Hi all,
there seems to be a huge number of things that monads can be used for. And there are lots of papers, blog posts, etc. describing that, some more or less accessible.
Apart from monads there are of course also Applicative Functors, Monoids, Arrows and what have you. But in short the Monad thingy seems to be the most "powerful" one of them all.
Is there a book that specializes on Monads? A Haskell-Monad book?
