it's kind of inspired by Why's ruby guide, because that's also a sort of funny-ish programming book with pictures, but i think our style is different enough.
yeah i thought of writing a chapter about monad transformers, but it didn't really fit in. if i do a second round of chapters monad transformers will definitely be there. otherwise, just come on into #haskell and ask about stuff and you'll quickly be elucidated!
it's a mystery! but i'd recommend buying it directly from No Starch because you get the free ebook and swag, plus more money goes directly into my mouth this way
for now!! but in the future who knows. people might want chapters that focus around making real useful stuff with the knowledge, so that's a possibility
