Commercial books and articles

A number of fine books and articles are published commercially that discuss how to develop software on the UNIX operating system. The Developer's Topics includes a large ``Bibliography'' that will interest users of the Development System.

In particular, we recommend that developers have the following standard textbooks on their shelves:

Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, The C Programming Language, 2nd Edition.

One of the following general books about programming on UNIX operating systems:

Donald Lewine, POSIX Programmer's Guide.

Marc Rochkind, Advanced UNIX Programming.

W. Richard Stevens, Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment.

W. Richard Stevens, UNIX Network Programming. Useful for programmers who are writing distributed applications.

Maurice Bach, Design of the UNIX Operating System. Useful for programmers who want to thoroughly understand UNIX system internals.

See the ``Bibliography'' for full citations if you are not familiar with the books listed above.
