What's a good book for learning C for Mac OS X?

If you understand Java, then skip C and go right to Cocoa. Aaron Hillegrass wrote an excellent book called "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X." I am currently reading/enjoying it. You can find more information here: http://www.bignerdranch.com/book

What is great about this book is that there is an online help section. If you are having problems understanding a certain page of the book you can go to the site (mentioned above) and enter in the page number. It offers additional help, and uses a forum/post for questions that are answered by the author.

As far as C goes....I have not particularly like any of the books I have purchased. Maybe somebody can offer an answer to the REAL question ;-)
 
There is only one C book you really need: The C Programming Language, by Kernighan and Ritchie. K & R invented C, they wrote the book, everything else is just frills ;)
