"Advanced Topics" tries to get its hands across a large subject. Unfortunately, it's too short, and thus too shallow. It tries to cover the intermediate and advanced UNIX system details, but does not go deeply enough to present a complete picture. The proper title should be "Introduction to Advanced Topics in UNIX". There are similar books out there that go for 800-1000 pages. Get one of those and you'll know UNIX very well. Then, get a book on the specific flavor of UNIX you're using. This book is good as an introduction to the above 2 books.
