C Programming in easy steps: Updated for the GNU Compiler version 6.3.0 5th Edition

Easy to understand and great pictorial presentation, it has been helping my son in clarifying the basic concepts of C 👍

I say almost because I had hoped that the book would tell me how the compilers availabe today would interact with windows. it doesn't but it did reveal the way we can get around the microsoft crap and still do what we need to do.

I enjoyed it and will use it as a reference. All topics are covered in two pages with an example which most of the time was enough. Some topics however, could have used 4-6 pages. Still, worth the investment. I would have liked some labs with an answer guide in the back.

Mike McGrath is an excellent writer and all of his Books are great- Easy to understand and to the point-Well worth the money and time invested-

I really like the way Mike McGrath writes. His stuff is direct and to the point, making it easy to understand.

I read a lot of reviews of books on learning C before choosing this one. I have checked out other books. This one isn't much different. It is written for beginners. But in my opinion, some of the concepts are not explained in a way that makes it easy to grasp. But most books I have found all explain these concepts in a very similar way. I wish someone would write a programming book in plain everyday language.

I like this book, good intro to C and good times learning to program!

It’s a good review of the language, provided you already know it, which I did. I wouldn’t recommend it as a first step.
