Book excerpts:

Advanced Linux Programming is intended for the programmer already famililar with the C programming langauge. Authors Alex Samuel, Jeffrey Oldham, and Mark Mitchell of CodeSourcery, LLC take a tutorial approach and teach the most important concepts and techniques for using the advanced and powerful features of the GNU/Linux system in application programs.

If you're a developer already experienced with programming for the GNU/Linux system, are experienced with another UNIX-like software, or want to make the transition from a non-UNIX environment and are already familiar with the general priniciples of writing good software, this book is for you. In addition, you will find this book is equally applicable to C and C++ programming. Even those programming in other languages will find this book useful since the C language APIs and conventions are the lingua franca GNU/linux.

:) "Bottom line: this is a good introduction to the subject of threads and Linux technicals, but will leave you needing more."
