Recommendation of book

Hello all,

first of all I'm new to Zabbix and not much experienced in Linux altogether. We used in company old old cacti but it seemed clumsy to me. So I deployed only linux machine in our company with CentOS and managed to get Zabbix and everything working easy. I'm new to MIDs OIDs and SNMP monitoring also and want to learn more about these subjects. We have about 50 servers for offices and production line but they werent monitored almost at all. And if so then only with PING by cacti. Now I can monitor crucial windows services needed for production line etc.

My questions is, I'd like to buy Zabbix book. I find there are two books, "Zabbix 1.8 network monitoring" and most recent one "Mastering Zabbix". On packtpub they say the older book is more for beginners, but just wanted to make sure with you and your help which one would be better for me first.
