I'm trying to amass a list of programming books with opensource licenses, like Creative Commons, GPL, etc. The books can be about a particular programming language or about computers in general.

What are some freely available programming books on the internet?

This deserves many many upvotes. BTW, could you add a link to stackoverflow.com/questions/172380/… ? Seems these go perfectly together – pookleblinky Oct 12 '08 at 8:23

Please do not edit answers into the question. I know they were there originally, but they really don't belong. – Michael Myers♦ Jul 22 at 15:36

@folone: Just because they are answers. Answers belong in answers. – Michael Myers♦ Jul 23 at 14:32

@homo sapiens please don't rollback to Revision 1, there's a reason this question is in its current state; answers are meant to be in an answer, not in the question itself. – George Stocker Oct 5 at 12:56

Please keep the list in alphabetical order. Meta, then Language Agnostic, then alphabetized list (unless you can argue a better method). – George Stocker Dec 31 '08 at 0:04

Practical Common Lisp

This is not a Creative Commons nor Open Source book, but the author has decided to give the content away for free online for everyone to read without charge, so I think it is worth mentioning.

Besides that, it is the best book on Lisp for beginners I have read, and is very up to date also (published July 2008).

Strongly recommended for anyone interested in learning Lisp:

Peter Seibel's Practical Common Lisp

Honestly I read only the first few chapters of ANSI Common Lisp, and the difference IMO is that Seibel's book is more up to date and more newbie friendly. Although I admire Paul Graham, I feel like he is all the time showing off how clever he is. – Sergio Acosta Oct 19 '08 at 2:39

At the risk of being downvoted, all books are free at the library, and you can find any of the books listed on other threads where people have already asked this question. I know you can't keep them, but if they're really great, you can buy a copy then, and save yourself the cost of buying the books that you'll only read once anyway.

Though they'll likely not carry the latest programming books, there are plenty of books that will lay the foundation for being a great programmer, like "The Mythical Man Month", among others.

you can also rent anime dvds from the library as well. that doesnt stop you from using torrents, does it? – theman_on_vista Dec 24 '08 at 14:54

Hmmm...many of the computer books I need are not available at the library. I long ago concluded that what I need in a timely manner, I have to buy; I'll wait a long time for the library to have the funds to buy them. – Jonathan Leffler Dec 24 '08 at 14:55

While I'd agree that many libraries are sorely out of date on their programming materials, I'd argue that many books that would make you a better programmer aren't exclusively "programming" books (like, for example, "The Mythical Man Month", which I guarantee your library has in stock). – rwmnau Dec 25 '08 at 19:44

rwmnau, my local library doesn't have "The Mythical Man Month".Are you going to come thru on your guarantee and buy it for them?:) 24.173.115.14/athcgi/… – Slapout Jan 21 '09 at 22:24

Also, for those who aren't aware: Programming books tend to be in demand, which means that you'll check it out for the two- or three-week period, you don't finish with it, and then you can't renew it due to requests.However, if you ask, some libraries will let you check it out from the start for the full period (including renewals), meaning you get it for a full eight or nine weeks instead of two or three. – Kyralessa Sep 15 '09 at 15:20

This may sound silly, but have you tried your local library? I work in a college library and we have access to a lot of ebooks through the Safari service (O'Reilly, Prentice Hall, Addison-Wesley, Microsoft Press, Sams and Que just to name a few). Many college libraries especially community colleges allow members of the community to become patrons, whether or not they allow off-campus access to online resources for these patrons varies school to school.

I don't understand how a library makes sense, from a moral perspective, now that you have ebooks. Can you and I share an ebook if we promise not to read it at the same time? No, that's illegal. Why are libraries okay... but they are. Good suggestion! – Yar Dec 21 '08 at 22:05
1  
All of our services require you to be signed in to read the book. It's web-only and cannot be downloaded/stored/cached. The Safari service doesn't care how many people read a book at once, however the NetLibrary service limits it to one viewer at a time. – alexp206 Jan 12 '09 at 17:08

Actually, my $0.02 is that reading a text book is simply a better experience than an ebook. But libraries - seriously, university libraries lag by about ~5 years (in UK anyway). In Russia, they lag by ~10-20 years (no, I'm not kidding). – Dmitri Nesteruk Feb 24 '09 at 17:01

It's not a proper book, but one of Wikipedia's spinoffs is Wikibooks, which has quite a lot of books in different stages of development.

Programming from the Ground Up

This is an introductory book to programming and computer science using assembly language. It assumes the reader has never programmed before, and introduces the concepts of variables, functions, and flow control. The reason for using assembly language is to get the reader thinking in terms of how the computer actually works underneath. Knowing how the computer works from a "bare-metal" standpoint is often the difference between top-level programmers and programmers who can never quite master their art.
