Summary:

This new book by best-selling UNIX author Mark Sobell combines the
strengths of a tutorial and those of a reference to give you the
knowledge and skills to master Linux. Uniquely designed for both
beginners and experienced users, A Practical Guide to Linux requires
no prior programming experience. It begins with an extensive tutorial
to bring those with less experience up to speed, and then quickly
progresses to detailed chapters on GUIs, networking, the vi and emacs
editors, three popular shells, programming tools, and system
administration. Part II is a comprehensive reference containing
descriptions and examples of 87 utilities. This book includes several
complete example sessions on downloading and installing Linux-based
utilities and other software from the Internet.
