Book Reviews of Advanced Unix Programming
Book Review: Highly Informative
Summary: 5 Stars
You should be familiar with general UNIX commands and the UNIX OS. This text will take you help you take advantages of the UNIX system. A lot of complex ideas are set forth. I highly recommend reading this book in between watching "Takin It All Off" and "Bikini Car Wash" videos, both of which are available through amazon.com VHS video department. The analytical aspects of this book are both analytical and very aspecty. Two things I look for in a computer-based book. If you are having difficulty with this text, then get a beginning text on UNIX, like "UNIX for Dummies".
