[Anton Simakov · Rating 3 out of 5]

I give this book five stars for its content and one star for its completely misleading title, so it gets three stars from me overall. In my opinion, the book under the heading of "for programmers" should not spend so much time and space (if any) explaining what operating systems are, how to compile and run programs, what functions are, how to use control structures, etc. A programmer should already now most of that stuff. From a book with such title I rather expected a detailed discussion of non-trivial parts of C programming language such as, for example, pointers and memory management. It's not like there's not any information in the book on these really important topics, it's just that this valuable material is buried under a pile of trivial to any programmer things.
