The definitive guide to Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

When Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was first published in 1974, it caused a literary sensation. An entire generation was profoundly affected by the story of the narrator, his son, Chris, and their month-long motorcycle odyssey from Minnesota to California. A combination of philosophical speculation and psychological tension, the book is a complex story of relationships, values, madness, and, eventually, enlightenment.

Ron Di Santo and Tom Steele have spent years investigating the background and underlying symbolism of Pirsig's work. Together, and with the approval of Robert Pirsig, they have written a fascinating reference/companion to the original.

Guidebook to Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance serves as a metaphorical backpack of supplies for the reader's journey through the original work. With the background material, insights, and perspectives the authors provide, Guidebook to Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is destined to become required reading for new fans of the book as well as those who have returned to it over the years.

Its a book!
Format: Paperback
Obviously, comparable to RTFM, marketed as more geared to responders, or Windows domain admins with a small amount of Linux in their network. My review assumes you know what the book you are shopping for is, you have read or heard about the RTFM and this. Awesome book, you'll likely find or be reminded of something very useful that you can use tomorrow based on flipping through it. Good - What you'd expect, condensed, long listing of commands with brief descriptions. Network, firewall, registry, services, etc etc etc. Command based AV scanning and lots more. Lots of stuff is based on "Basic" commands included in powershell or windows cmd, additional tools sysinternals suite, some typical third party network command tools, as well a few references to less common tools. Eh - Frighteningly short intros to some tools, but for brevity's sake seems necessary, I'd suggest readers try everything in a lab. Bad - Many commands are described from a very basic idea gearing up to fairly complex, complete, long commands, with lots of big font and double spacing. Little to zero instruction is provided for some stuff, for example, the reg query commands, which you can read and see what they do or are for. Lots of lines go to nearly the exact same command (like firewall rules), I feel like they'ed be better if they had more context. The font is bigger (than RTFM), I'd like it if the book made more use of tables, bolding and underlining, and italicizing do differentiate sections of text, along with a smaller font and no double-spacing. I feel like this just adds to the girth of the book. All in all, great book, I definitely recommend it for network or domain admins and defenders.

The Blue Team Field Manual came very fast in fact five days earlier then expected and it made me very happy! Not to mention that the book looks like it haven't even been used it was a little scratch and tiny dent on top cover but it is barely noticeable! Thank you so much! Will be coming back for some more books ๐Ÿ“š

Crisp and Clean
Format: Paperback
This book does exactly what it promises. It's a super clean collection of tons of useful commands for any defend-focused team. It's not going to teach you any lessons, really, which is what I was looking for when I opened it. At first I was disappointed, but as I got deeper in I realized what the book was and what it wasn't, and it just got better and better. I wish there were more books of this kind. You don't have to write a dissertation in order to create something useful. Sometimes quick references are the best thing you can have.

Format: Paperback
This is just what I was looking for. Just a fast lookup of commands needed to get the job done for Linux and Windows. It is not a teaching tool but a good reference for someone who know but needs a fast reminder. And it all corralated to just frame work. Love it
