Take your Haskell and functional programming skills to the next level by exploring new idioms and design patternsAbout This BookExplore Haskell on a higher level through idioms and patternsGet an in-depth look into the three strongholds of Haskell: higher-order functions, the Type system, and Lazy evaluationExpand your understanding of Haskell and functional programming, one line of executable code at a timeWho This Book Is ForIf you’re a Haskell programmer with a firm grasp of the basics and ready to move more deeply into modern idiomatic Haskell programming, then this book is for you.What You Will LearnUnderstand the relationship between the “Gang of Four” OOP Design Patterns and HaskellTry out three ways of Streaming I/O: imperative, Lazy, and Iteratee basedExplore the pervasive pattern of Composition: from function composition through to high-level composition with LensesSynthesize Functor, Applicative, Arrow and Monad in a single conceptual frameworkFollow the grand arc of Fold and Map on lists all the way to their culmination in Lenses and Generic ProgrammingGet a taste of Type-level programming in Haskell and how this relates to dependently-typed programmingRetrace the evolution, one key language extension at a time, of the Haskell Type and Kind systemsPlace the elements of modern Haskell in a historical frameworkIn DetailDesign patterns and idioms can widen our perspective by showing us where to look, what to look at, and ultimately how to see what we are looking at. At their best, patterns are a shorthand method of communicating better ways to code (writing less, more maintainable, and more efficient code).This book starts with Haskell 98 and through the lens of patterns and idioms investigates the key advances and programming styles that together make "modern Haskell". Your journey begins with the three pillars of Haskell. Then you'll experience the problem with Lazy I/O, together with a solution. You'll also trace the hierarchy formed by Functor, Applicative, Arrow, and Monad. Next you'll explore how Fold and Map are generalized by Foldable and Traversable, which in turn is unified in a broader context by functional Lenses. You'll delve more deeply into the Type system, which will prepare you for an overview of Generic programming. In conclusion you go to the edge of Haskell by investigating the Kind system and how this relates to Dependently-typed programming.Style and approachUsing short pieces of executable code, this guide gradually explores the broad pattern landscape of modern Haskell. Ideas are presented in their historical context and arrived at through intuitive derivations, always with a focus on the problems they solve.

    当我们受挫的时候，是否怀疑过自己能不能成功；当我们成功的时候，是否思考过自己能不能做得更好；当我们迷茫的时候，又有没有想过自己为什么要做这件事？自我实现的渴望激励人们不断去探索高峰、探索人性能到达的境界。     在这本书里，马斯洛深度探讨了自我实现与超越、男性和女性的认知、教育的目标和意义以及社会与个人的协同作用。他颠覆性地提出了超越性动机，带你领悟自我实现的高峰体验。     现代生活中工作和教育的压力，让人们渐渐失去对于自我实现的自主性，厌烦情绪膨胀，工作和学习自然难以取得令人满意的结果。马斯洛所提出的以兴趣、爱好为代表的心理动机，对人类自我实现的意义却远超所有人的想象，是时候把自主权重新掌握在自己手里了，人性能到达的境界，取决于你想到达的境界。

      关于人类自己，我们有着太多的好奇。为什么人会有欲望？是什么动机促使我们挑战这样或是那样的困难？动机总是一个一个，好像无休无止，自我实现真的可以被满足吗？甚至，我们还会想知道，我们可以成为什么，我们想要成为什么？      这些对自我行为与心理的探索，对内在人性的疑问和剖析，在这本《动机与人格》里已经行了充分的表述。当代伟大的心理学家、人本心理学的奠基人马斯洛在书中提出了许多精彩的观，详细探讨了自我实现这个概念，创造性地提出了人本心理学科学观的理论、需要层次论、元动机理论、心理治疗理论、高峰体验理论等重要观，以解答我们对人性的疑问，帮助我们从心理动机的角度，了解个人自我实现的需求。      实现内在动机的关键，在于认清内心自我实现的需求，抵御外部力量的裹挟。简单来说，就是只要你想，你就可以活出你自己想要成为的样子。

　　《自闭历程》讲述了天宝•葛兰汀带着自闭症的独特性，在生活中的种种遭遇，以及她自己的思考和困惑。对于普通人而言处于正常范围的噪音，会让她如同置身于轰炸现场；她会不停地重复一个新学到的词，而若不巧这个词涉及禁忌，就会给她带来很大的困惑和麻烦；她也会捉弄那些让她难堪的同学或者老师。作为一个独立的社会人去思考未来人生的时候，她无法理解象征着崭新世界的大门是什么样的，反而一定要找到一扇具体的门，她一次次它，穿过它。后来，天宝为自己制造了一台神奇的机器，她可以自由调节内部空间，让自己舒适地置身于它的包裹之中。但是，很多“正常人”会胡乱揣测这个机器的用途，并强加给它各种各样的象征意义。

Now featuring a new introduction by Dr. M. Scott Peck, the twenty-fifth anniversary edition of the classic bestseller The Road Less Traveled, celebrated by The Washington Post as “not just a book but a spontaneous act of generosity.”Perhaps no book in this generation has had a more profound impact on our intellectual and spiritual lives than The Road Less Traveled. With sales of more than seven million copies in the United States and Canada, and translations into more than twenty-three languages, it has made publishing history, with more than ten years on the New York Times bestseller list. Written in a voice that is timeless in its message of understanding, The Road Less Traveled continues to help us explore the very nature of loving relationships and leads us toward a new serenity and fullness of life. It helps us learn how to distinguish dependency from love; how to become a more sensitive parent; and ultimately how to become one’s own true self. Recognizing that, as in the famous opening line of his book, “Life is difficult” and that the journey to spiritual growth is a long one, Dr. Peck never bullies his readers, but rather guides them gently through the hard and often painful process of change toward a higher level of self-understanding.

"At any rate, she only wanted to be good and seen as good as “Good!” sounds. She yearned to be a good daughter, a good sister, a good wife, a good mother, a good daughter-in-law, a good member of the family and a good member in this society. But there was no good friend in her dictionary, because she didn’t have one. Accordingly, she was not in any social circle. She occupied very little space, and her world was a poor function in an ancient machine. "
