C Programming Language, 2nd Edition
Book details
Summary
Description
The authors present the complete guide to ANSI standard C language programming. Written by the developers of C, this new version helps readers keep up with the finalized ANSI standard for C while showing how to take advantage of C's rich set of operators, economy of expression, improved control flow, and data structures. The 2/E has been completely rewritten with additional examples and problem sets to clarify the implementation of difficult language constructs. For years, C programmers have let K&R guide them to building well-structured and efficient programs. Now this same help is available to those working with ANSI compilers. Includes detailed coverage of the C language plus the official C language reference manual for at-a-glance help with syntax notation, declarations, ANSI changes, scope rules, and the list goes on and on.

This is the fundamental C programming book. It's not the easiest read, but it's not too difficult, either - I wouldn't make this your first programming book unless you've been learning for a few years without any! But it is a great introduction to the C language, it's a handy reference, and the price is very reasonable. It's also not to long a read - about 260 pages even if you include all appendices. A great book!
Written in the 1970s and still relevant. It's a classic for a reason.
