Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell: Techniques for Multicore and Multithreaded Programming [Marlow, Simon] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell: Techniques for Multicore and Multithreaded Programming Review: Great book to introduce parallel and concurrent techniques for haskell programmers - This is a great book as a jumping-off point for writing concurrent and parallel haskell programs. It covers a number of paradigms and techniques, with advice about the trade-offs and advantages of each. A worthwhile read if you are already writing serial haskell programs and are looking to extend your knowledge. Review: Clear, Informative, with Breadth and Depth - Simon Marlow is one of the top Haskell programmers and he has written a very clear presentation on the different ways of achieving concurrency and parallelism, and making sure your program is performing well using a number of tools. An excellent book. It even goes into distributed Haskell which is still (as of 2015) a work in progress.

Excellent overview of the concurrency options in Haskell
Excellent overview of the concurrency options in Haskell. The language has many different ways of approaching this problem, and this book covered each well enough to impart the core concepts. For specifics, I can consult a reference or the web.

Best programming book I've read
Best programming book I've read for any language, Haskell included. Great introduction to concurrent programming (I did not read the parallel programming half). Haskell's type system really shines in enforcing safe use of STM (Software Transactional Memory).

this book is absolutely amazing for parallel + concurrent programming
This book is NOT meant as a first book in Haskell. For that, I would suggest "Learn You A Haskell" or "Real World Haskell." However, this book is absolutely amazing for parallel + concurrent programming. The book looks thin, but it's packed with technical insight and details.

I love this book
I started using this book in my work even before I finished reading it. You can find this book in the Internet for free, but I hope author has some money when you are buying books. And for me it's a good way to say thank you to author.
