This is one of the best books you can read if you're a C programmer trying to refine your chops. I have bought this book 4 times, and now keep my private PDF all to myself, because every time I loan it to a new C programmer I never get it back. :)
Seriously, if you want to know more about C than you do, I'm pretty sure this book will teach you something.
That said: I'm not sure it should be being posted as a scribd link to HN .. surely this is a violation of terms, unless the author has released it to the public domain?
I have this book on the "top-tier" bookshelf just above my monitor. It's situated between "The UNIX Programming Environment" and "The AWK Programming Language" and couldn't be better company for those classics.
This book converted me to OpenBSD as it was the only OS that has many of the classic build tools mentioned.
