[Haskell-cafe] Intermediate Modern Haskell

[Artem Pelenitsyn]

Dear Jacques,

You may be interested in browsing through the table of contents (and maybe
the actual contents) of the Haskell in Depth book by Vitaly Bragilevsky
https://www.manning.com/books/haskell-in-depth
It will soon be out from Manning (currently finishing the preview phase
called MEAP). It has a good selection of "advanced" topics (including ones
you mentioned) supported by a set of interesting projects.

Kind regards,
Artem
