This book is a must read for anyone interested in the command line world of the most magnificient computer systems in the world. These systems power the juggernaut they call the Internet- the autobahn super-highway of all information systems. I came from a Windows world and as this book states in the intro, if you were always curious as to what happens underneath any of these magnificient systems, pick up the Learning Red Hat Linux! That is becasue nearly all of the web servers and routers that power the Internet are composed of 100% of the DNA of Unix-Linux's software underbelly. Why wouldn't you pick up a book with "learning" in the title since all books should mandatorily strive to provide learning at its core. I am happy with the pace of this book even though I have just recently puchased it. I know this book will immerse me in a perfect intro of Linux and so far I have enjoyed the Background and Installation chapters that provides the backdrop of learning any Operating System. If all books were like The Learning Series book, we would never need any other type of book. This book should set the foundation for a lifelong of independence and self-sufficiency in learning provided your curiosity has been aroused and you act upon it with meaningfull dedication! |
