My favorite printed reference book on linux is: "Linux in a Nutshell", published by
O'Reilly (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxnut3/). It is a desktop reference, not
a textbook.
If you want more of a textbook, I recommend "Running Linux", also published by
O'Reilly (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/runux3/).
I have the 2nd editions of both and I've found them to be very helpful. They are both
up to 3rd editions. While I haven't seen the latest editions, I image they're at
least as good as the second editions.
If you go to the O'Reilly web site, you can view sample chapters from each.
