Considering that MONAD is a new shell and not many books are available in the market this book is a great introduction to MONAD. The author introduces the functionality with examples and he gives us details on how to learn more about the new features.

The author assumes that you know the windows command line scripting and compares that with MONAD in some instances.

Over all the book is great. I recommand this to anyone who wants to jump stat MONAD scripting.

Monad (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/msh/) presents the next generation of command interpreter included in the next Microsoft Operating Systems. Andy Oakley, the Author, show new commands and resources, through clearly samples and detailed descriptions, increasing the level of complexity slowly and comfortable supporting users to learning about all topics without doubts. Complete and one excellent book to have.

The only problem I have with this book is the toad on the front cover. This is what other shell books should be, this is what other shells should be. Highly recommended for the Windows administrator.
