I want to write programs for my LC.  

What compilers would people recommend?

I see mention of THINK C and PASCAL and also MPW.  THINK are
advertised, what is and where would I get MPW from?

I have done a lot of programming in pascal and C but none on a machine
with windowing.  I would therefore need a gentle introduction to mac
programming, or are the manuals good enough to give the basics from
which INSIDE MAC V1-?? would begin to make sense?

Recomendations for useable/useful books please.
