I'm a reasonable user of Ubuntu - both on my netbook and dual-booting

I'm looking for a book on either Ubuntu or Linux in general in the
"Windows inside out" type of format, i.e. from simple through to
fairly technical, suitable for a general user - me!
I'm slightly concerned about forking out £34 for the current Ubuntu
12.04 bible published by Sams as the interface could possibly change
again in 14.04!
Can anyone suggest a good general book, or should I buy a general
Linux book and if so what would be the recommendations for that, or
should I just look for on-line information, and if so where's the best
place to look for the most topics in one place? (I do like big books!)

Thanks for the replies everyone - now a different question thrown up by
this.
If I want to collect together a "library" of problems and solutions and
other resources from this and other mailing lists that I subscribe to,
the main one being Libre Office, what would be the recommendations for
the format and application that would be best to store these in, with
regard for easy searching and retrieval?
Cheers
Gordon
