 [1] "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System"
      Marshall Kirk McKusick, Keith Bostic ...
      Addison Wesley, ISBN: 0123-4567-89
      Description:
      The authors first update the history and goals of the BSD system.
      Next they provide a coherent overview of its design and
      implementation. Then, while explaining key design decisions, they
detail
      the concepts, data structures, and algorithms used in implementing
the
      system's facilities. As an in-depth study of a contemporary,
portable
      operating system, or as a practical reference, readers will
appreciate the
      wealth of insight and guidance contained in this book.

  [2] "Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets"
        Peter van der Linden
        Prentice Hall PTR, ISBN: 0131774298
        Description:
        Defying the stereotypical notion that technical books tend to be
        boring, Expert C Programming offers a lively and often humorous
look
        at many aspects of C -- from how memory is laid out to the
details of
        pointers and arrays. The author reveals his points through
invaluable
        anecdotes, such as stories of costly bugs, and through folklore,
such as
        the contents of Donald Knuth's first publication. Each chapter
ends with
        a section entitled "Some Light Relief," which discusses topics
(topics that
        some may consider to be "recreational"), such as programming
contests. A
        fabulous appendix on job interview questions finishes the book.

  [3] "Mastering Algorithms With C"
         Kyle Loudon
         O'Reilly & Associates, ISBN: 1565924533
         Description:
         Written with the intermediate to advanced C programmer in mind,
         Mastering Algorithms with C delivers a no-nonsense guide to the
         most common algorithms needed by real-world developers. The
         highlight of the book has to be its concise and readable C
functions
         for all the algorithms presented here, including basics like
linked lists, stacks
         to trees, graphs, and sorting / searching algorithms. The C
functions that
         implement these algorithms are clearly printed and remarkably
easy to read.
         You can use this sample code directly or adapt it into your
C/C++ code.

  [4] "Advanced C Programming by Example"
         John Perry
         PWS Publishing Co.,  ISBN: 0534951406
         Description:
         This practical, example-driven, code-centered book is intended
for
         intermediate - level C programmers who want to take their
skills to the next
         level. The book builds on readers' existing background in C to
complete their
         knowledge of ANSI C libraries, and the conceptual and syntactic
structures
         needed to master dynamic data structures, string parsing and
numeric
         conversion, memory management, bit-level manipulation,
interactions with
         operating systems, and other advanced techniques. What sets
this book apart
         from traditional data structures books is it's "blue collar"
approach to the art of
         programming -- how to master the "down in the trenches" C
details to
         implement abstract ideas successfully. In recognition of this
approach, the book
         presents actual C code rather than pseudocode.
