Don't bother it is published by Packt. None of the books published by them I have read were any good.

As an author of a book published by Packt, I understand this but still wish people could tone that down from, "none of the books..." to "some" but yeah. Mine has 5 stars in amazon and I know there are many which are well reviewed or have been very useful for my own learning.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
