_Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System_ by McKusick _et
al_ is wonderful.  It starts out at a level that's easy enough, even if
you have almost no experience working with a unix kernel, but it goes very
deep into the kernel internals until you really havea very good
understanding of the system.

It's somewhat old, but it's still totally relevent, so don't be put off
just by the age.
