I am trying to amass a list of programming books that are freely available on the Internet. The books can be about a particular programming language or about computers in general. Which are some freely available programming books on the Internet.

This article is in the Book Review chapter. Reviews are intended to provide you with information on books - both paid and free - that others consider useful and of value to developers. Read a good programming book? Write a review!
