Someone mentioned Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets as a good book to learn the C standards. Are there any other books that or resources one would recommend to learn this sort of material?
no, it's not a good book to learn the standards! :o) for that you are better with harbison & steele or similar (although that's more a reference - maybe this http://publications.gbdirect.co.uk/c_book/ which i just found?). deeper c is more like a collection of essays that explore interesting corners - it doesn't attempt to cover everything (i enjoyed it, i'm just saying it's not what you described...)
ps you say standards (plural) - all the above is c only.
