Haskell is one of the leading languages for teaching functional programming, enabling students to write simpler and cleaner code, and to learn how to structure and reason about programs. This introduction is ideal for beginners: it requires no previous programming experience and all concepts are explained from first principles via carefully chosen examples. Each chapter includes exercises that range from the straightforward to extended projects, plus suggestions for further reading on more advanced topics. The author is a leading Haskell researcher and instructor, well-known for his teaching skills. The presentation is clear and simple, and benefits from having been refined and class-tested over several years. The result is a text that can be used with courses, or for self-learning. Features include freely accessible Powerpoint slides for each chapter, solutions to exercises and examination questions (with solutions) available to instructors, and a downloadable code that's fully compliant with the latest Haskell release.

Industry Reviews

'The skills you acquire by studying this book will make you a much better programmer no matter what language you use to actually program in.' Erik Meijer, Facebook, from the Foreword
Review of previous edition: 'The best introduction to Haskell available. There are many paths towards becoming comfortable and competent with the language but I think studying this book is the quickest path. I urge readers of this magazine to recommend Programming in Haskell to anyone who has been thinking about learning the language.' Duncan Coutts, The Monad.Reader
Review of previous edition: 'Where this book excels is in the order and style of its exposition ... With its ripe selection of examples and its careful clarity of exposition, the book is a welcome addition to the introductory functional programming literature.' Journal of Functional Programming
