I’ve not read the book, but the Wicked Cool Shell Scripts site and its example shell scripts are, erm, wicked cool. The site offers a whole host of scripts, some of which could quite easily be adapted/hacked into useful tools. If you’re remotely interested in Shell scripting, you should take a look, even people with scripting experience might learn a thing or two.
