Good introduction to the Pi, but it lacks some unity.

I'll try most of the examples in the book, namely the web server bits and see what comes out of it.

A nice and concise introduction to the Raspberry Pi. This can easily be used as a step-by-step manual by those with no prior experience with the Raspberry and includes a description of all the components and many suggested add-ons, how to set up the OS, the basic Linux commands and working with Python and Scratch.

A pretty good book for someone starting out. It is extremely basic in areas and will prove of limited utility to anyone with any prior knowledge in linux and electronics, but for the beginner, it will allow a decent grasp of the subject and will allow them to begin truly working with the Raspberry Pi.

Overall, a recommended book if you have need somewhere to start.
