This is a terrific book! Full of good code examples for all sys admin tasks. The examples in Chaps 8-10 are real gems. I especially appreciated the multi-platform non-bias the author brings to the subject. I hadn't read a book on SysAdmin before, having learned much over the years from the man pages and on-line resources. Blank-Edelman really brings together a wealth of info on a variety of topics. I'll definitely use the scripts in the book.
Topics like Lists-of-Lists and anonymous subroutines made me learn a-new topics I thought I knew already.
