This is a GREAT book for Linux Admins, beginning programmers with no formal training...and people into managing and manipulating data. It is well written and if you've used unix from the command line in any capasity (sed, ed, vi, emacs, bsh, csh, ksh...) then you'll have no problem following this book.

"Nail it to your desk unless you want to be constantly retrieving it from your co-workers. If I might be permitted a Spinal Tap reference, this one goes to eleven. If you ever use regular expressions, are thinking of using regular expressions or are in the same room as a regular expression, then you need this book."
