Libes enlivens Unix, the world's premiere operating system
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
An excellent counterpoint to _The Unix Hater's Handbook_, Libes in a straightforward, evenhanded way explores Unix history and its philosophy. As Unix continues to dominates serious computing, it's essential that one know more than ``nuts and bolts''. Libes fleshes out Unix in a most extraordinary way. It's among the ``must have'' books for the current or soon-to-be Unix guru.
A must for UNIX lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book covers not only UNIX history, but also the "UNIX way of computing". It's probably not a good starting book on Unix, but it's a must for anyone who has ever used (and liked) UNIX systems. All UNIX flavors are mentioned. It could talk about linux, but the book was written before linux came to life. It's centainly a classic!
