Very good start for Non-Programmer
As the title shows, this book is real simple and easy to read and practice. Does not require any prior knowledge about programming or computer.

It covers almost all basic concepts and skills for programming but is still very thin--only 219 pages. It also shows good summary, problem shooting guide, and debugging tips for each chapter and is real helpful for practicing.

Problems with this books are too simple and compiler independence. Sometimes meanings are not clear because of its simplicity. (Especially for the syntax) Nowadays programming involves delicate compiler and development environment but was not discussed at all in this book. This book teaches you only basic skills and syntax of C--not all of them.

Overall, it is real good start for everyone--even for the people have never programmed before. But still you need another books to be a real programmer. Way to go!

Good Book - Bad Price
This is a classic misuse of college textbook pricing. This book should normally sell for $... or so but the price is inflated because Addison-Wesley had a specific use already in mind.

Otherwise it's a good book. It presents C in a clear, concise format for the beginner.
