ScalaZ resources

A panflet e-book by Eugene Yakota - learning Scalaz

A good starting place http://hacking-scala.posterous.com/scalaz-resources-for-beginners perhaps changed to http://hacking-scala.tumblr.com/post/49050104489/scalaz-resources-for-beginners

Seven at one blow - Lars Hupel shows what changed in ScalaZ 7
