Please recommend a good Unix or Linux book
I looking to broaden my knowledge in Unix/Linux. I have taken some basic classes in the past and tinkered a little with operating system at home..
What i am looking for is if someone could suggest a good book or class or both to help out. Looking at getting a Unix or Linux Certification. I work at night for a NOC, working on Unix and Windows Servers. My 2nd Level Unix support people didn't want to respond to my email, so I figured the forum was my best option.

Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.
