Welcome to the Linux Foundation Forum!
Learning more...
I'm looking for references where I can learn a little more about what makes linux tick, not so much the how to's but a general overview of the ideas/processes behind the OS. Coming from a windows systems administration background when something goes wrong I have a general idea of which direction to head to find the solution, with linux I'm still finding my way.
I find it easier to read from paper, so any books I should be looking into?

O'Reilly usually has great books on Linux - I used this one when I was starting out...

the "rute" web page is a book online. I've read several Linux User's guides and this is the easiest to understand with one exception. The bash shell script chapters.

I know your looking for paper books, but can you really pass up free e-books?
