Have you read the others?  There's no way the APC Handbook compares,
even when you consider the price.  There's plenty of free documentation
available on the web which is better.  Sure, if you want to get hold of
three different distributions then it isn't a bad way but there's no way
I'd recommend it to anyone in search of a book about Linux.

Christian.
