The authors of this book set out to tell you all the things
about Unix that tutorials and technical books won't. The result
is gossipy, funny, opinionated, downright weird in spots, and
invaluable. Along the way they expose you to enough of Unix's
history, folklore and humor to qualify as a first-class source
for these things. Because so much of today's hackerdom is
involved with Unix, this in turn illuminates many of its in-jokes
and preoccupations.
