Would you recommend those books to someone who is just familiar with the Linux command line and knows the basics of C? I want to start understanding the system I use everyday, in depth, but am not sure where to start.

I bought "Beginning Linux Programming" and I think it's a great book for beginner and intermediate C programmers looking to get a deeper knowledge of Linux. A bit basic if you've been working with C for some time tho.

After buying it I found The Linux Programming Interface... and I certainly regretted having bought the former rather than the later. But for beginners I recommend the first.
