Summary

Linux Basics is an introductory Linux textbook edited by Li Chun and Li Gang, published in 2010 by Beijing Normal University Press as part of a Ministry of Education recommended textbook series, aimed mainly at beginners in universities and vocational colleges. The book begins with where Linux came from: it first introduces the development and characteristics of its predecessor UNIX, then covers Linux's birth, the significance of the free software movement, and Linux's development and current state, along with study advice—set aside Windows habits for now, start from commands and fundamentals, understand the system's overall structure, make good use of the help system, and practice often. After introducing distributions, the book moves to hands-on material: preparation for and the process of installing Linux, logging in and logging out/shutting down, the basic format and common commands of Linux, and getting help within the system. In the files and directories section, it explains the concept of files in Linux, creating and managing directories and files, link files and inodes, file permissions, directory structure, and file systems; it then introduces basic operations of the vi text editor and the fundamentals of using the Shell, including autocompletion, command history, wildcards and filename matching, input/output redirection, Shell variables, command aliases, and user environment customization, and extends to system management topics such as process management. An appendix indexes common commands and configuration files for easy reference.

Editor's review

这是一本读起来很清楚、结构也很明确的 Linux 入门书。它不会一上来就把读者丢进终端里照抄命令，而是先花一章讲清 Linux 与 UNIX 的关系、自由软件运动是怎么回事，再谈“该怎么学”，把容易踩的弯路提前说明白。从第二章开始，内容就实实在在落到手上：安装系统前的准备、安装过程、命令格式、常用命令、怎样在系统里查找帮助。第四章把文件、目录、inode、权限和文件系统放在一起讲，这个顺序对初学者比较友好。只要理解了这一章，后面的操作就不会像背命令那样零散。第五章和第六章分别讲 vi 与 Shell，包括自动补齐、命令历史、通配符、重定向、变量和别名，都是日常用得上的内容。书末附有常用命令与配置文件索引，可当作小手册随手翻。需要说明的是，这本教材出版于 2010 年，其中涉及的安装流程和发行版示例已与当下环境有差距，但命令、权限、重定向、进程管理这些基础知识并不过时。建议把它当成打地基的读本，配合当前主流发行版边学边实验，效果会更好。

Who it's for

A good fit for

计算机、网络及相关专业的高职高专与本科学生，正在上 Linux 基础课
完全没有接触过 Linux、想从命令行入手建立基本功的自学者
只熟悉 Windows，希望系统理解文件权限、目录结构与 Shell 概念的转行者
需要一本结构清晰、便于按章复习的入门教材的培训班学员

Not a good fit for

已有 Linux 日常使用经验、想深入内核、运维或容器等进阶主题的读者
希望直接学习当前主流发行版最新安装与桌面配置的读者
需要大量实战案例与项目练习的工程实践者

Reading tips

先读第一章，接受 Linux 与 Windows 思维方式的差异，再动手安装，学习阻力会小很多
第四、六章是全书核心，建议每读一节就在虚拟机里敲一遍命令，用 ls、chmod、重定向亲手验证
遇到安装章节内容与现有发行版不符时不必纠结细节，抓住分区、引导、账户设置等概念即可
读完后接一本当代的 Linux 命令行类书籍或官方文档，把基础迁移到新版本上

FAQ

这本书适合零基础的人读吗？

适合。全书从 UNIX 背景和 Linux 的诞生讲起，并专设“Linux 的学习方法”一节，命令行部分也从命令格式、基本命令教起，默认读者没有 Linux 使用经验。

书里的内容现在还能用吗？

基础部分依然成立，如文件与目录、inode、权限、vi 操作、Shell 变量与重定向、进程管理等。但安装流程和发行版示例成书于 2010 年，与当前环境有差异，建议配合现行发行版文档对照学习。

这本书是哪个系列的教材？

据百度百科与搜狗百科词条，该书属教育部推荐教材系列，由北京师范大学出版社 2010 年 8 月出版，主编为李春、李罡，全书约 29.1 万字。

学完这本书能达到什么水平？

大致是能够独立安装系统、熟练使用常用命令、理解文件权限与目录结构、会用 vi 编辑文件、能写简单的 Shell 脚本并管理进程，属于 Linux 入门到基础操作的水平。

About the author

李春 Author

Li Chun is an author whose works have been included in Chinese book publishing, though publicly available information about this person is limited, and details such as identity background, dates of birth and death, and nationality remain unclear. Judging from the two works currently in the collection, Li Chun's writing covers two directions: law and financial management. "Compilation of Lao Civil and Commercial Economic Laws" is a legal compilation that focuses on organizing legal texts in the civil, commercial, and economic fields of Laos, while "Fundamentals of Finance (4th Edition)" is a basic finance and management textbook intended for introductory finance teaching. These two works differ markedly in subject matter—one is a compilation of regional legal documents, the other an introduction to basic financial knowledge—suggesting that the author or editor has cross-disciplinary capabilities in material compilation and textbook development. Because more verifiable information is lacking, it is not yet possible to further evaluate Li Chun's writing style or academic influence.

李罡 Author

Li Gang is an author about whom limited public information is available. Three of his works are currently on record, spanning music, arts education, and vocal performance practice. His representative work is the boxed set A Brief History of Pop Music, published by Shanghai Music Publishing House, which traces the development of pop music in Europe, the United States, and China for readers who wish to understand the genre's history systematically. The Art of Pop Singing focuses on the methods and practice of pop vocal performance, complementing the historical survey with attention to technique. Art, Education, and Life explores the relationship between art, education, and human life, reflecting the author's interest in arts education. The recorded categories of his works include film and television, essays and miscellaneous writings, and examinations, suggesting a readership broader than music alone. As his dates, nationality, and education remain unconfirmed, this note makes no inferences about them and introduces his writing only through the subjects of the works on record.
