Never heard of that Korn shell book, but don't use that sed & awk book.
You don't need a book to learn the how to use sed for the things you
should use sed for (i.e. simple substitutions on a single line) and the
book that best teaches you awk is "Effective Awk Programming, Third
Edition By Arnold Robbins" (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/awkprog3/).

Google for examples and lurk here and comp.lang.awk.

It's probably Rosenblatt's "Learning the Korn Shell". I had used it once
in the past because it had the (at that time otherwise undocumented) ksh's
advanced getline feature described. The rest of the book looked also quite
good, so that I'd recommend it. (If the OP means another book, though, I
can't tell.)

Seconded.
