Summary: Excellent Book
Comment: I had a deadline and I knew very little of C. This book saved my life! The text is very well written and captivating. It contains examples and counter-examples with the most usual trivial mistakes. The title suggests the book is only on pointers, but this is not true. It deals with everything needed to start programming right away. A must-buy book if you want to learn C fast and easy.

Summary: Best Book on C Programming - Bar None!
Comment: Better than Kernighan and Ritchie. Better than Harbison and Steele. Not for beginners to programming in general, but by far the best book for programmers looking to learn the C programming language. The emphasis on pointers is absolutely essential to serious C programming, and this is the only book I know of that is so oriented. You may study K&R or H&S, then go to look at some Linux kernel source and find yourself mystified. Not so with Reek's book. The former books teach pointers to be sure, but the level of detail and examples are insufficient for serious programming. The Reek book fills this void. An outstanding book and very readable as well. Buy it.

Summary: Author Deserves Nobel Peace Prize
Comment: Pointers On C assumes you have a basic understandig of C. If you know a little C, then I very extremely highly recommend this book. It explains the material thoroughly. There are no confusing run-on sentences. Pointers On C is so well written that you never have to read anything over again. And it is really easy to understand. The author takes the time to thoroughly disect & explain the intricate details of the C programming language. The book is not confusing in any way. There are no questions left unanswered.
Some books just TELL you how something works and then you KNOW what works.
Pointers on C EXPLAINS how things work so that you UNDERSTAND why it works.
Thats a big difference.
