Why read it?
1 author picked Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Modern Unix systems (including Linux) offer a wealth of APIs. This book provides detailed instruction, including sample code, on how to make the best use of them. It is a one-stop-shop for mastering the details of Unix programming in C.
I recommend the book because it is thorough, authoritative, and clearly written. Richard Stevens was a well-known author and consultant and his books are models of clear exposition. Steven Rago is an experienced Unix developer and author as well.
From Arnold's list on for learning the Zen of Unix.
