One book in the No Starch Press bundle is available to read online for free at the Learn You A Haskell for Great Good! website. Haskell is a functional programming language, which led to the odd grammar in the title. If you're used to procedural languages like C or Pascal and object-oriented languages like Java or Lisp it's kind of a twisty way of thinking, but it can be very powerful.

Another free-to-read Haskell book is Real World Haskell, published by O'Reilly, but not part of the current Humble Bundle.

While I'm listing free-to-read programming language books, there is a semi-related book also available online (but not part of the Humble Bundles) Learn You Some Erlang for great good! about Erlang - another functional language.

Another book in the No Starch Press bundle - The Book of F# - is Microsoft's take at a functional language.

Ah, a fellow member of the Cult of vi. (For anyone who doesn't get the reference, the Editor War between the vi and Emacs text editors was one of the great computer holy wars.)
