Look for the O'Reilly books (especially the 4.4BSD set) at your local bookstore. They're probably the most complete, but they may not be exactly what you're looking for. They have a website with information on thier titles, but the URL eludes me at the moment. I personally don't know of a good introductory text. Someone else will probably be able to help you with that.
