Linux and the Unix Philosophy
Mike Gancarz - Collection Operating Systems
Résumé
Concise list of philosophy tenets makes it a handy quick reference Anecdotal examples personalize the book for the reader Conversational style makes it easy and joyful to read
Unlike so many books that focus on how to use Linux, Linux and the Unix Philosophy explores the “way of thinking that is Unix” and why Linux is a superior implementation of this highly capable operating system.
This book is a revision and expansion of a successful computer science classic. Every chapter in the book has been updated for the fast-growing Linux market.
Linux and the Unix Philosophy occupies a niche that falls squarely between the “softer” texts on iterative software design and project management vs. the “how-to” technical texts. Thus far, no one has come out with a book that addresses this specific niche, either in the Unix space or the Linux space. Linux and the Unix Philosophy covers the same ground as the first edition, while it also capitalizes on the general momentum surrounding Linux today.
