Finally a Packt book whose content matches the title...

I've come to associate Packt as the publisher where anyone with a word processor can get published. This is not one of those books. This is far and away the deepest, most well written text I own on modern C. If there can only be one C book in your collection, this is it (Sorry K&R...). Material is well organized, concepts are clear, and the author's personal philosophies are suggestive rather than authoritarian (although he strikes me as an authority...). I'm 13 years deep in C, and 3 years in on owning this text and I keep re-opening it because the material is that rich. The "OOP in C" chapters are fairly unique for a C book, and probably my favorite sections - they've helped me codify how I think about embedded software stacks and re-usable code. The real "extreme" here, is the simultaneous breadth of topics covered along with their depths. Fantastic resource.

Great book!

While many C-books only focus on the language and syntax itself, this book gives a walk-through on the entire compilation pipeline as well as provides insight to important topics and principles such as the process memory structure, memory management strategies, optimization considerations and most of all how to apply the human object oriented mindset with the C-language.Worth to mention is that the latter topic is not about building another C++ by extending C with custom domain specific languages implemented with macros, naming standards, etc. but rather about how to implement object oriented principles (used in popular products such as httpd, curl or OS kernels in raw C11/C18.The necessary toolchain involved in the compilation pipeline as well as debugging and memory profiling is also presented to the user, which is really useful. I can really recommend this book!

Very good book + fast shipping

Fantastic Book

This is an excellent programming book. It contains some of the best explanations I have ever encountered of some very complex topics. I read it cover to cover. I would hope this author continues to write many more books. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in Linux System Programming, Concurrency, IPC and OOP.
