Customer comments on this selection.
 They should all be this easy to follow
I bought this book for work when I needed to know alot about Solaris in a hurry. It quickly got me up to speed and has since carried me through two undergraduate Unix programming courses. The text is written in plain language, and is supported by excellent examples. When I didn't know how to read the man pages, Mark Sobell's book came through for me. If I could only have one book on Unix, this would be the one.
 Great book to learn from and a great reference
I used the book to brush up on my rusty Unix skills.
Don't let the number of pages in the book overwhelm you if you're a newbie or want to brush up. The first 125 pages will have you using Solaris with great confidence. The next 1,000 or so pages can be used to learn particular topics and as a reference. Recommended for newbie and intermediate (learning tool) and advanced users (detailed reference).

Excellent UNIX book for beginners and experts alike
This was the first and only UNIX book that I have in my technical library. Covers all the basics of the operating system as well as more advanced topics. Very good layout - the first part of the book is written by topis with the latter part containing an alphabetical listing of UNIX commands. If you're a UNIX admin, supplemental books beyond this one would be required, but for a user of the UNIX OS, it's a great resource.
Excellent text book
This book is an excellent text book. I recommend it to anybody as a good starting place. When we get new empoyees without any Unix experience this is the book I recommend. The layout is perfect for sitting down and learning step by step with the included lessons.
