book for system programming confusion

I am a C programmer with more than 3 years experience on Linux platform.
I am looking for a good book that can explain the internals of Unix from
a programmer's point of view.
I searched and inquired , and finally zeroed on following 2 books

1.Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment, Second Edition (Addison-
Wesley Professional Computing Series) by Richard Stevens

Computing/dp/0321525949/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1246652000&sr=1-1

Computing/dp/0131411543/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1246652342&sr=1-1

I am confused , which one should I buy?
Please guide me on this.
Even if you guys know about some other book which you think is better
than above 2 ,please do tell me about them

Thanks
