But as I learned throughout my college career (and again in post-graduate classes) there is a *huge* difference between studying to learn and studying to pass the exams. If the original poster wants to learn Linux, as opposed to passing the certification exams, I'd recommend "Linux Administration Handbook", by Evi Nemeth, Garth Snyder and Trent Hein (Prentice Hall).
Please note that I am *not* trivializing in any way the effort or benefit of the certification exams, merely pointing out that there is a difference between passing an exam and having a thorough knowledge of a subject.
