And even newcomers *with* a strong academic background. I am a 
mathematecian.

I find Haskell attractive because it expresses problems in the way I 
would naturally formulate them. But I still expect a beginner tutorial 
to have enough info to get a basic program runing. To me that seems very 
logical.

Cheers,
