I came across a very good book for people getting started with
programing on the Mac using Lightspeed C.
The name of the book is

		Macintosh Programming Primer
		Inside the toolbox using
		THINK's LightspeedC
			by
		Dave Mark and Cartwright Reed
		Addison Wesley $24.95

I have Inside Macintosh and Macintosh Revealed, but needed something
else to help me start out.  This is it.  Not only it helps you with
using the compiler (which manual is sometimes confusing) but it
also helps with Resedit, translating those calls from Pascal, and has
about 6 or 7 programs that guide you through the Toolbox routines.

Out of the three C books for the Mac that I know of, this is the best.
The other two are published by SAMS and, IMHO, are not good.

Two thumbs up!!!!
