Are there good introductory texts and intermediate monographs
presenting categorical approaches to combinatorics and statistics?
I know of and admire *Une théorie combinatoire des séries formelles* par
André Joyal,
cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_species,
but am seeking works which are in English,
and that actually develop the mainstream elementary theory
but using the categorical vernacular and results.
Presentation of topics significant in computer science
(cf. Knuth, Graham, Patashnik* Concrete Mathematics* for some examples of
such topics)
would also, of course, add interest.
Best, Keith
