Summary: Dan Gookin is the best!
Review: This is my first book that I bought for C programming. I really liked Dan Gookin's jokes! He is so funny! I especially liked volume I because he explained C programming clearly. For some reason, he was not as funny as he was before in volume II and the concept gets somehow confusing.

Rating:
Summary: A very good choice for beginners
Review: I hadn't done any programming ever until I got this book. I'm now just a few chapters into it, and I'm writing real, albeit simple, stuff. I like the way he gives you exercises and simple tests to re-inforce what you've learned. A great choice.

Summary: Great book for the non-programmer!
Review: I had 5-10 books on programming and I couldn't get anything out of them because they all assumed you knew at least -something- on programming.. with the humor and cartoons in the book, it's worth it, especially at $20..

Summary: Easy to follow!
Review: It's esay to understand and everything is explained very clearly. As it's really difficult to find English books here in Japan and expensive, too! I found out about Amazon.com from a friend and order this set of C For Dummies and realized that C programming is not as hard as it sounds!!! A wondeful books for the beginners!

Summary: Great starting point for beginning C programmers!
Review: A great starting point for beginners. It mixes in humor and instructions for learning. Very easy to understand. I read this book about 3-4 months ago when I started learning how to program. Since then, I have learned C, C++, Windows 95 Programming with Object Windows Library, and am going to start learning Windows 95 API Programming. A great starting point for most people.

Summary: A must have for learning C language!
Review: Dan Gookin incorporates both humor and learning making this an easy to read book. I would never have survived C without it, as the text I had been using was too technical for beginners and the reading was very dry. Unfortunately I had to finish the course without Vol 2, but by then I had learned the basics well enough that I was then able to understand the more difficult aspects. Since reading this book I now look for other titles by Dan Gookin because I know I will learn from them and not be bored.
