I own both if the above, plus "Developing Linux Applications with GTK+ and 
GDK" by Harlow and "GNOME/GTK+ Programming Bible" by Griffith.  I found each 
book helpful by giving a different approach to the same subject.  Studying 
the same subject multiple times may seem like a waste of time, but for a 
newbie I found that the repetition helped me gain a more well rounded 
perspective on the subject.  Unfortunately, these books were all written for 
GTK+ 1.2.

I have found references to a new book "Programming with GTK+" by Tim Janik - 
O'Reilly & Associates, May 2003, ISBN 1565926242.  This book is supposed to 
cover gtk+2.0, but it was apparently never actually published (at least 
according to O'Reilly).  Does anyone have any more information on the status 
of this book?
