I can attest, this is a _great_ book.

One of the things it demonstrates is how to use iterators (which
translates to a lot of imperative languages) to create infinite
sequences - like the features of Haskell that allow you to declare
things like the set of all the positive integers.

It was more than worth the purchase.
