With so many C programming textbooks to choose from, it can be hard to
find one that's engaging and readable. The first edition of
C Programming: A Modern Approach
was a hit with instructors and students alike because of its clarity
and comprehensiveness as well as its trademark Q&A sections.
The book's spiral approach made the first edition accessible to a broad
range of readers, from beginners to more advanced students.
The first edition was used at over
225 colleges, making it one of the
leading C textbooks of the last ten years. It was also popular among software
developers, engineers, and other professionals who use C on the job.
