UNIX in a nutshell would not be the greatest book for a noob. It is more of a quick reference book so if your new to UNIX then you would not be able to look up what command you need since you do no know them.

Until then I also would recommend this book for noobs:
UNIX system administration handbook by Evi Nemeth, Garth Synder, Scott Seebass, Trent R Hein
