Excellent Unix book for beginners, and more advanced.

Excellent Unix book for beginners, and more advanced. I love all my many Peter Norton books, starting with INSIDE THE IBM PC.(1985). They are in plain English and explain the background you need to know. I bought a copy of this UNIX book when it was first released. I have worn it out. I got a copy for my coworkers, they wore their copy out. I am now buying another copy for someone who needs to learn Unix, and a second copy for myself in 2008. I have lots of more advanced Unix books, this is still my favorite beginners book.
