The Berkeley Unix Environment

Rating:
Summary: An outstanding read--even if you need only _parts_ of it.
Review: I got this book when i already knew much/most of it. It was still great just for the stuff which i didn't know or needed a quick reference for. A very well written book--even better than the usual o'reilly books which i get.

Review: This book is great for an overview of UNIX and C. I find myself going back to it again and again for C syntax and listings of UNIX tools. While it could be improved upon, I have yet to find another book which displays what I want to know as neatly and concisely as this one. I'm probably going to get a second copy of it because I am wearing the first one out!
