Advice needed regarding Unix doc/book

I am a newbie Oracle DBA. All our oracle servers are hosted in AIX and Solaris Environment. I have no knowledge about this Unix O/S. So, it will be great if anyone here can suggest me any good book which will teach me the basics.


Any inputs/suggestions will be great for me.
