Modern Operating Systems [Tanenbaum, Andrew, Bos, Herbert] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Modern Operating Systems

Review: Great read - This is how a technical book should be written. It's a nice middle ground for those of us who don't want to read a pure technical book, but has really great information. Definitely better than The Design of the UNIX Operating System. That book put me to sleep after 1 chapter. I think the two books complement each other, but unless you're a die hard Linux nerd or someone who really needs to know the exact details of how the UNIX OS works, I'd recommend Modern Operating Systems. I'm an Android Dev, and there's a great chapter about Android.
Review: Very easy read as the OS concepts and more are explained very well!!! - Thanks to my embedded/real-time OS instructor for recommending this book for our reference. The book is amazing and very easy read as the OS concepts are explained very well. The author(s) goes to a deep level and covers several topics including Virtualization and Cloud and Security. He also has a case study of Unix/Linux/Android and Windows 8. I highly recommend buying this book, reading it and owning it!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must have book!
*by J***B on May 23, 2018*

Great book, well written and covers a ton. Quality of the global edition is perfect. Not going into detail on the content, just wanted to say I have no regrets getting the less expensive global edition. After posting this review for the global edition I see that it shows up for the paperback non-global edition. Looks like an even better deal at $25 vs $50 for the global. Somehow I missed that when I placed my order but was glad to not have to shell out $175 for the hard cover version!
