My bookshelf full of technical books in a variety of topics, including Linux. But there were times when someone new to the world of IT I want a book to get them started in a particular area. Unfortunately, most of my books are thousands of pages, very detailed volume is so inaccessible that the only use for a beginner could get would kill a few spiders.
But now, thanks to Jon Clark Terry Emmons and finally a book that can give a young student, or is it a PC user “Windows-only.” Easy Linux Commands “is exactly what it says it is: an easy introduction to the world of command line.
be easily readable and accessible is the main selling point of this book. The book is only 200 pages, with many images, large text and only 30 lines per page, but is also structured so that the exact same family, like countless other books. On the other hand, I think the author’s style is too technical. His style is very informal and almost conversational. Judge for yourself by visiting his blog “Life after coffee,” which sometimes includes parts of the book. In fact, if something is unclear, Jon Emmons is a very accessible question and respond quickly and happily.

Also note that I said This book is an introduction to the command line in the world, not Linux. He told me that for two reasons:
1. Almost everything in this book applies to Unix. Very little of this book is specific reality of Linux.
2. Although graphical interfaces such as Gnome and KDE Linux, this book covers the Linux command line only.
word caution. Do not be thrown by the “guru of Linux Command” photo printed on the cover. It will not be a guru. It covers the basics, and only a little more. ” But this book will take you to a place and lets you use some of these great books to become a guru (instead of an exterminator).

I consider myself an average user of Linux and not wait. I found this book to be very good for beginners as well as a quick reference guide of an expert. The book is organized logically and covers the most common (and necessary) commands. Each command has a breakdown of how it works and then some examples. One of the things that impresses me most is the concise explanation. There is a great balance between giving enough information and bogged down with every possible detail. This is the kind of book that is great to read while you’re sitting at your computer. Read a few paragraphs and then test samples.

I was very happy with this book. It s a quick introduction to the Linux command line. It is easy to follow and the examples are good. Although this book will make you a Linux guru (there is someone else), will help you develop the basics of command line and help you become more experienced. This is also a good reference for the Linux certification exams, as many of them have different issues relating to the command line. Also, I noticed one reviewer complained that some of the commands in the book has not worked for it in Ubuntu. This is a good place for beginners who do not know much about Linux. Not all commands work on all distributions and commands some are unique to certain distributions. This is not really a flaw of the book, however. This is a good book for those who know Linux, or even for the more experienced who want a good reference book for the activities of the CLI.

This is one of the few books on Linux I actually went all along. In general, Linux books are huge, and yet very informative, is lost in the details. This book is rather short, and presents all the commands you need basic knowledge of terminal locations. There will be an administrator, but it is ideal for home users. My beef is that there is only an index of commands that is halfway through the book, and not as an appendix, I had a dog-ear the book to find it.
