Summary: Good for a quick reference library
Comment: I've used this book in preparing a three day "crash course" in C. I found the reference material invaluable when creating my presentation. The easy access to information and the clear, concise descriptions were just what I needed when preparing slides. I would recommend this book to any moderately experienced C programmer who has to teach C to others. I have also encountered one of my peers who used this book to learn C and he found it extremely helpful in learning C from the ground up.

Rating: 2
Summary: A bad way to begin learning a programming language.
Comment: Like the title suggests, the book is fast paced. It quickly goes through basic principles and then gets into heavier data structures. Inadequate time is spent on the harder material, and there are no exercises anywhere. It is not possible to gain a working knowledge of C from this book.
