Years ago I started from Handbook. I dare to say that for first one-two years it will be enough for you. All you need is to
1) understand english
2) the interest in topic
3) patience
4) try ideas or get assignments from your boss
5) read that Handbook all!

Another very and _really_ well-written book is from Micheal Lucas "Absolute FreeBSD 2nd edition". If you have more or less serious intentions to work or play with, that book is worth every cent you pay. I bought that book and I like the style, order of material and good presentation abilities presented by author. What makes even more ... this book is very practical oriented. You can get things running quite fast.

Alors, Handbook + "that book from Lucas" will be enough for you. Don't forget to communicate with people!
