well, i think that's what a lot of us are doing here; learning UNIX. to answer your question, yes, learning the tools in the command line environment will help you learn the crux of UNIX for most platforms (except the really bizarre ones, like SCO-UNIX ;)
some of the differences in flavors of UNIX are vast. for instance, many resellers add their own admin utilities and switches to commands, or completely retool commands.
but, for the most part, all Unices run under the same basic OS philosophies. some books try and cover the latest, popular usage trends in Unices. add AIX to your list.
