worth its weight in gold! 
It has the most complete and thorough coverage of daily system routines such as cron and job control. This book is essential for a unix system administrator student or one who is just starting out. I have not been able to find such coverage of process handling in any of my several system administration books. I have read a few books on shell scripting but this one covers not only how to script but a great deal of knowledge surrounding shell scripting on a daily system administration practical basis. If you want a great reference tool, buy this book.
Good Book for Total Beginners Only 
Most of the book covers things that directly relate to Unix, and not necessarily to korn shell programming. I was disappointed in this book. However, if you are new to unix and/or new to korn shell scripting then this should be a good book for you.
