   Personally, I would rather read the wealth of information that is   
   available online in so many different structures and free -- but if   
   someone is just burning to buy a book, I suppose it would be appropriate   
   to consider the 'Official Ubuntu Book' which is mentioned on ub.com   
   http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Official_Ubuntu_Book?highlight=%28book%29   
   Announcing the Official Ubuntu Book   
      
   Have you already exhausted all of the other ub information, or do you   
   just want something made out of deadtrees [or recycled paper] that you   
   can hold in your hands and smells good like a book?
