Out of date and over priced.... but still good.
This is the only good commercial book about AIX. Is it because of IBM's Red Books being so good? Maybe, it's certainly not because of their (...) man-pages. This book will get you through everything till you hit an SP environment (PSSP), take IBM classes after that!

Good for UNIX Beginners
If you have limited experience on UNIX and end up in a job where you have to learn AIX admin, then this is the correct book. If you have indepth UNIX experience with HP-UX or NCR, etc, then you will outgrow this book in about 15 minutes. There are many tasks that need to be done that are not available in smit (smitty). This book won't cover them.

Good book
This book is packed with lots of useful information. It is targeted for a UNIX sysadmin who is switching to AIX. If you are new to the UNIX this book will not be a good place to start. However the language is clear and if you do not know something you can usually figure what to look for in a general UNIX book to get a necessary background.
