Reader Reviews
This review is from: Introduction to UNIX (Paperback) It is very smooth introduction book and it walks trough some essential subjects in UNIX. As any introduction book it is way far from the real life and if you would feel that you need more I have found "UNIX Essentials" DVD to be very useful and contributing. If you absolute novice with UNIX this book will work well because it is well written and easy to read. I would definitely recommend this one to have one's feet wet with UNIX. Comment | | (Report this)
