References to Other Books


[Page xxix (continued)]

For the same reason that it's good to reuse existing code, it's also good to use other people's reference material when it doesn't interfere with the natural flow of the presentation. Information that we consider to be too specialized for this book is noted with a reference to a publication listed in the Bibliography at the end of this book. For example:


[Page xxx]

"... for more information on virtual memory, see p. 116 of [Bar, 2000]."

The information in brackets is usually the name of the primary author and the year of publication; in this case this book is entitled Linux Internals. Where we reference specific pages, it is, of course, possible that future editions of these books will have different page numbers. The reference will hopefully still remain reasonably close to the quoted page number.
