Maurice J. Bach

It is not so much that I enjoyed this book. Rather, I appreciated the thorough overview of the operating system that I interact with for many hours a day.

I think that anyone with an advanced layman's appreciation of *nix would find something in this book, though it is long, and old. At the same time, the historical aspects were nice. The history of Unix.

I am glad that I worked through every relevant word of this book - I skipped the exercises.

The internals under the original *UX

Expensive but well worth it, a must read for any Unix guru
