How about "The Haskell Road to Logic, Maths and Programming" by Kees Doets and Jan van Eijck (http://homepages.cwi.nl/~jve/HR/), reviewed by Ralf Lämmel (http://arxiv.org/abs/cs/0512096)? -- Edit this signature at http://www.digitas.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/ken/sig Earth???s crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God; But only he who sees, takes off his shoes; The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries. ???
