If you are knowledgeable about computers in general, but don't know much about Linux, this is the book to get. It focuses on command line apps that are universal to linux and not distribution specific programs. This eases the reader into the linux environment and the book flows nicely from section to section. After reading this book, the reader will have a very good general idea of the inner workings of linux. With this book as a base, the reader can then diverge to other topics in more depth.


I would definitely recommend this book to those who are interested in linux, but have not had the experience to know the inner workings of the OS.
