Relative pronouns have two functions- Like other pronouns they stand for a noun or pronoun placed before them and like conjunctions they join subclauses with main clause and start the adjective clause.The relative pronouns 'which' and 'that' are used for things.
The relative pronoun 'who' is used for persons. 'Whose' is the possessive form of 'who'.
'What' is used when the antecedent is understood. 'Whatever' is a compound relative that is used to indicate a more generalised idea.
The subject of the given sentence is a 'book'. So, the relative pronoun 'Which' must be used.Thus option c is the correct answer.Options A,B,D and E are incorrect.
