Here in Italy, Schildt is suggested by a lot of teacher.
Someone told me that negative reviews was made by his haters...
One must ask why so many of us hate what Shildt writes. Precious few of
us have any relationship with the man; we have nothing to gain from his
downfall. His writing has haters because it is crap: it suggests
things which are not legal C; he suggests things which are tied to
particularly implementations; he presents his errors and
implementation-specific answers as "standard" C; he refuses to correct
his errors. To the extent that anyone "hates" the man himself, it is
because of his refusal to acknowledge or correct his errors. The
"someone" who told you "that negative reviews [were] made by his haters"
has things backwards. The negative reviews are the result of his
errors; any "haters" are the result of his unrepentant propagation of
those errors.
