Operating System Concepts
from Wiley
Price: $116.57

Customer Review:

I purchased this book for a class I take in operating system in local college. I like most about this book is the flow of information and the relative clear view about the subjects discussed. It is easy to read and to follow.
In addition, there are the slides that accompany the text and can be... more info

Operating System Concepts (7th Edition)
from Wiley
Price: $101.85

Customer Review:

This was the text used in the Operating Systems course when I was in undergrad at Wisconsin. It was a useful reference for my projects including a CPU scheduler, file system implementation, caching algorithms, etc. It's more conceptual, which I like--it's more important to truely understand the... more info

Modern Operating Systems (3rd Edition) (GOAL Series)
from Prentice Hall
Price: $96.08

Customer Review:

This book was assigned for my Operating Systems course in college this semester. It is truly a great textbook, and this is coming from a student who has read (and avoided) a lot of textbooks. It makes the subject matter very easy to understand in a variety of ways that help illustrate the concepts... more info

Guide To Operating Systems, Enhanced Edition
from Course Technology
Price: $67.38

Customer Review:

This really isn't a BAD book. I guess the reason I didn't like it so much is that it doesn't include the best information on the newest Windows OSs or the newst networking protocols. Yes, Vista is mentioned and described in brief, but I'd say there was more (and better) information on MAC OS than... more info

Operating Systems: Internals and Design Principles (6th Edition) (GOAL Series)
from Prentice Hall
Price: $100.19

Customer Review:

I can't speak for the information in the book. It is a book that accompanies one of the worst courses I've ever taken due to the professor.
However, I can speak about how uncomfortable it makes me feel. This book gives out an unpleasant smell that irritates my lungs within a half hour. Even if... more info

Customer Review:

Currently I am a CS student in my senior year. I am taking my final for the class tomorrow and the book has done an excellent job of taking some complex topics and translating them into legible english. That being said, I will just explain some of the flaws.
The first problem is the pictures or... more info

The exercises are bland, and definitely doesn't even begin to properly cover linux. almost treats linux as a step child. give it a cookie just because its here and i dont want to hear its supporters cry. it also seems to treat the distribution fedora as the alpha and omega of linux. it does vaguely... more info

Operating Systems (3rd Edition)
from Addison Wesley
Price: $100.10

Customer Review:

This book is absolutely horrible... hard to read, incoherent, and amazingly difficult to use for educational purposes... The example code is unusable and in many cases non-functional. It has no basis in real world application or information. It is theoretical at levels that provide no value to those... more info

Customer Review:

As an IT student, I occasionally run into material that I find stale, boring, and overwhelming. This book isn't like that. I am able to review study material that is not only useful, but fun to read! You can't go wrong with this book, it is a valuable resource to learning OSs and what makes them... more info
