The new book is almost a hundred pages larger than the previous one.

Gone:
* C Refresher - we'll put it online so folks who are coming from a non-C language can get the C they need to get the most out of the book.
* CVS - Subversion is the new hotness


Brand New Chapters:
  * kqueue - get notifications from kernel-land
  * making daemons with launchd
  * Subversion

Everything else has been overhauled and expanded. Just a short list of new stuff added in the rest of the book: fat binaries, native objective-C exceptions, shared libraries with dlopen, more debugging techniques, 64-bit programming, gcc 4.0, file attributes, file metadata with getattrlist, intro to IPv6, Rendezvous -> Bonjour, Shark, Saturn, tastes great, less filling, fun for the entire family, and I'm sure I've forgotten a bunch, too.

Cheers,
