'Compute!'s ST Applications Guide: Programming in C'
by Field, Mandis & Myers (ISBN 0-87455-078-5).

Cover price is $19.95 though it cost me 17.95 pounds here in the UK.
Worth it though. It has a lot of good code in it and several large
applications built from a toolkit of routines that should provide most
of the functions needed for ST GEM. Also useful is the fact that these
routines take account of the bugs in ST GEM where possible. Some good
ones for building resource trees within programs too.
