I’ve been programming for a good while but I am relatively new to Linux. Sure I’ve flirted with it a little in the past but I’ve mostly been down in the worlds of Nulceus, vxworks, and threadx.

I found myself needing to come up to speed fast on a lot of little things - multi threading, communications, piping and build processes. This book covers it all in good enough detail to get you on your feet fast. The sections on signals was especially helpful as was the nice overview of gdb which while not the debugger type I’m used to - really proved to me how useful that old program still is (and since I’m stuck with the command line version of it - how to really make that version sing).

As a quick reference/introduction this book can’t be beat. Highly recommended
