Reader ReviewsIf you are a newbie this book will save you a ton of money and hours. Spoonfeeding at its best. High repetition ensures high retention rate. Reads like Decameron. Very easy. Most importantly, the author doesn't try enforce his authority in the field by savouring Confusion which is a second name of Unix. Enjoyable from the first page to the very last thanks to contageous easy going atmosphere. John would make a good movie director or an orchestra conductor.
