What you want is "ISO/IEC 9899:1999 Programming languages -- C" Where and how exactly you can get the book depends on national circumstances. The C Standard is an ISO Standard, hence distribution is handled by the national standards organization which is associated to ISO. Best might be to find your member body in http://www.iso.ch/addresse/membodies.html and contact them how to get ISO Standards. They will have a 'how to purchase' on their web page, I assume. I also recommend the FAQ: http://www.iso.ch/infoe/faq.htm ; you can search for Standards on http://www.iso.ch/cate/cat.html In Germany, ISO Standards are handled by 'DIN' (www.din.de), which has passed the printing and selling matters to the publishing house 'Beuth Verlag'. Hence, in Germany you buy the Standard as a book from Beuth Verlag. It's quite expensive by the way, when we got it we had to pay about 700 German Mark.
