Re:Hacking Linux Exposed 2nd edition much better (Score 1)

I bought the second addition of RWLS and HLE also, I like HLE much better. I had to order HLE from the publisher so I had RWLS a couple days earlier. I've been reading the same topics in both books, HLE has been more up to date so far. Something that really annoys me about RWLS is being referred to so many other sections. I want to simply read the chapter of interest and learn from it, not jump around all over the book. I will continue to read both books by topic together, and I may come to appreciate RWLS. So far, it hasn't been as helpful as HLE. Compare them before you buy, I wasn't able, HLE wasn't on the shelf yet.
