I did run a self study group in Berlin and I highly recommend the 1st 19 chapters of the "Haskell programming from first principles" to start from the ground. After that it's more beneficial to continue with a more project-based approach to connect the dots with hands-on code. For the second part, although I just read the sample part of "The Simple Haskell Handbook", it seems fairly practical.

Cheers,

I want to encourage more people at my company to learn Haskell, but I just don't have time to prepare and deliver a class. But then it occurred to me I could lead a self-study group, where people learn on their own but would have a forum to discuss what they're learning and ask questions. I would encourage people to answer each other's questions, but I would answer the more difficult questions.

What book(s) do you think would be best suited for self-study? The participants would all be experienced programmers, but would likely have no knowledge of functional programming?
