Summary: good read - up to speed quickly - good place to start
Comment: While having some classroom experience with Solaris I would not consider myself experienced with it at all. So with having a big Solaris implementation ahead, I needed a good read on Solaris to get me up to speed & figure out where I was heading. This was a good book to start out with, balanced between someone who would use Solaris on a day to day basis (end user wise) and between someone who would be the sys admin of a Solaris box. It covered many topics lightly, but that is the nature of the book (and the Dummies series). This title was what I was hoping for. Certainly a good book to get you up to speed quickly; and now I have a page of notes to research and get smarter on.

Summary: Very good, comprehensive introduction to Solaris 9
Comment: After having looked at all too many different books on Solaris, I had just about given up hope on finding a book that was focused on the user experience, rather than the job of system administration. Then I found "Solaris 9 for Dummies". Written in the typical light, breezy Dummies style this book does a great job of teaching you how to get up to speed and efficient with Solaris 9.
There's also plenty of system administration content, but the author wisely defers to 1000+ page tomes on Solaris administration (and the lots of good administrative material from Sun themselves that we got with our systems) for the nitty-gritty.
This book is good enough that you can hand it to newbies who've just been put in front of a Solaris computer and expect them, within a day or two, to be completely up-to-speed and ready to work!
Recommended.
