Review:

great book on linux

This is far the greatest linux book that I have read. I used this book for 4 yrs, eventhough i spill water on it, i did recover it and still used it. I hope GM can create a new book for the new linux distros like this.

Review:

Get a grammar checker

The great content is marred by countless grammatical foibles which make the book nearly unreadable. Here's an example: "By default denying access to every one, is the first step of a reliable security policy. In this way we eliminate the possibility of forgetting someone or to making a mistake."

Review:
