An addition for UNIX books to read

I wanted to add this to the FAQ section on which UNIX books should be read, but the thread is closed. One of my all time favorites is now available for free download, "UNIX Text Processing":

It discusses many fundemental questions that I often see posted here.

Cheers,
Keith
