Modern Operating Systems (2nd Edition) (GOAL Series) Review by H. L. Macomber

Go get any book by Silberschatz instead

I'm sorry I have to disagree. This book is sloppy and poorly written. Besides the run on sentences, multiple spelling errors, and ridiculously long and labored explanations, the book is a dead bore. The author violates the one simple rule when writing a definition or explanation...do not use the word as definition. Granted, some chapters and sections are better written than others, however, overall the student who is desperate to comprehend will eventually head to the web in search of a better explanation. Along the way they will find Abraham Silberschatz textbooks and breathe a sigh of relief.
