Summary: exellent material
Comment: As a n00b starting fresh, this was the book of choice for my unix class. I find this book very good on teaching me the fundamentals of the world of unix and it has me wanting more. Everything is easy to understand, and the self-test questions at the end of the chapters keeps me challenged. I recommend this to anyone wanting to get a good start on learning unix

Summary: A Beginners Guide to Unix
Comment: Windows users are always scared away when they get near to Unix. One reason is the command line interface and difficult to use documentation (try man find). A need was felt for a guide which can help GUI users to shift back to their DOS days.
This book exactly fills in that gap. It reminds you of those old DOS book by Peter Norton etc which go through every topic in their respsective field. This book helps in giving a very fundamental understanding of Unix use.
It covers a lot of topics and also points out differences among the various implementaions of Unix at appropriate times. From using a simple command like ls, it goes onto using Perl for System Administration tasks. In between it covers topics like redirection, regular expressions, pagers etc. in adequate detail. It is a must read for beginners and will also be useful for advanced users to tone up their skills once in a while.

Summary: Maybe the ULTIMATE! (its questions make it uniquely good)
Comment: This author knows what the reader needs to learn & how best to accomplish it.
Not only does this book cover a superbly WIDE amount of essential topics (e.g. Internet server, Perl), but it achives
the author's goal of covering things in an order that is
more realistically use-able.
Also, the thousand questions make it ideal for self-study or a class textbook. I can't find any other Unix book that as overall good at this one (and I've looked at them all!).
