Review:
This is a reference for the intermediate UNIX user who does not want a complete manual. Ninety commands are given a page or two, each. The result is a kind of extreme subset of the man pages. Users are expected to know, at least roughly, what command they need, since there is no index. It would not take long to flip through and find something that might do what you want, but this is not a tutorial work. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1995

Review:
This is a no-nonsense, bare bones (you can always tell when something has been typeset using troff), hold the handholding kind of book. It is written for the intelligent reader who has some familiarity with computers. It is not for dummies, not for the timid, not for those who need lots of screen shots (preferably graphical) between the big words. It is of those who have work to do, have a 10 am Monday deadline, and have been given a UNIX workstation or terminal. It is, in fact, for the impatient. Chapter one is a quick history of UNIX, in the same spare style as the rest of the book. It ends with the beginning, as it were, with the login process and some basic commands to get started. (One minor quibble: it *doesn't* tell you how t... Rest of this review on the detail page
