The book you are referring to deals with the GTK+ 1.2 API which is not 100% compatible to GTK+ 2.x. I would not recommend it any longer. The online GTK+ tutorial is reasonably well maintained though and should get you further. But the best way to learn GTK+ is to read code. > At the same time I'm going to be reading a classic book I > found in my college's library, "computer graphics: principles and > practices" by Foley and Van Dam.

There are some good books on image manipulation algorithms such as the one from Gonzalez and Woods. But you can spend years hacking on GIMP w/o having any clue on image manipulation algorithms.
