Jim, the writer asked about good C *tutorial* books. While I haven't
reviewed K&R II, I found the original K&R too terse to use as a learning
tool. My favorite series are by Kochan and Wood (in various combinations):
Programming in C, the wonderful intermediate level Topics in C Programming,
and the latest on Ansi C. Topics, in particular, covers a breadth of
material rarely encountered, like curses, makefiles, library calls, etc.
