Best books to learn Functional programming, in order

Functional programming is a mindset shift more than a syntax one, so the order should retrain how you think before piling on abstractions. Begin with immutability, pure functions, and higher-order functions, then composition and algebraic data types, then the harder ideas—functors, monads—last, once you've felt why they exist rather than memorizing them as jargon.
