linux in a nutshell

Linux Pro Magazine: "I ran into Stephen Figgins at OSCON in San Jose last summer and he told me he'd been working on the 6th edition of Linux in a Nutshell.

Last Friday we met in Kansas at a coffee shop to discuss the new release."

Linux Tutorial: "I just wrote a review for Linux in a Nutshell, 6th Edition and commented that it seemed as if each successive edition acquired more pages.

In the Linux book's case, it isn't true, but it is true in the case of Lutz's book. In fact, between the 3rd and current edition, the book has expanded some 466 pages.

Good grief, what accounts for such growth?"

Desktop Linux: "O'Reilly Media has published the sixth edition of Linux in a Nutshell, by Ellen Siever, Stephen Figgins, Aaron Weber, Robert Love, and Arnold Robbins.

The sixth edition of the reference book boosts coverage of Linux system essentials and newer technologies like virtualization and wireless, says O'Reilly."
