Re: [Haskell-cafe] recommend book for self-study group
I agree strongly. See also https://haskell.markmail.org/search/?q=CIS194 Then, you want to quickly move to https://thinkingwithtypes.com/ (the second half of CIS194 already shows the way) ... because that's what makes present-day Haskell useful and unique (and not "thinking with lists (and Ints)", as some (LISP-era) introductory texts want you to believe)
... I just don't have time to prepare and deliver a class.
then hire a (remote) consultant? Buy a few copies of Maguire's book. - J.W.
Thank you everyone who responded to my request for book suggestions for a self-study group. I had completely forgotten about CIS194, and I'm particularly glad to learn that the second half paves the way for Thinking With Types. These books were new to me: "Haskell programming from first principles", "The Simple Haskell Handbook", "Get programming with Haskell", "Haskell in Depth" Amin, it's especially good to hear from someone who has run a Haskell self study group!
