From the reviews of the second edition:
"This book is a user's guide for some of the more commonly used GNU compilers and their collection of supporting tools. . This would be useful for more advanced users. . It also provides a good starting point for anyone that needs more information than what is in this book." (J. Miller, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (2), February, 2008)
