Macintosh C Programming Primer, Volume I, Second Edition: Inside the Toolbox Using THINK C by Dave Mark and Cartwright Reed, Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, 648 pages. Copyright 1992 by Dave Mark and Cartwright Reed; first printing, May 1992. ISBN 0-201-60838-3 (v. 1).

This is Volume I, the introductory volume. The two other Primer pages here both hold Volume II.

Three "Primer" pages, two different books

The three Macintosh C Programming Primer pages on this wiki do not hold three books:

Neither Volume II copy is a 1989 book, so the 1989 in one page title is wrong; and neither is Volume I, so a reference to "the Primer" without a volume number is ambiguous.

This is not a repair source

It is a programming book. It contains no service procedures, no exploded views, no parts lists, no schematics, no voltages and no component values, and nothing in it should be cited for a hardware figure. Apple's own repair documentation is in Category:Apple Service Source; for electrical data on a specific machine the Developer Notes are the place to look, because they carry rail currents, processor-direct-slot power budgets and connector pinouts that the Service Source manuals do not.
