The Design and Implementation of the 4.4 BSD Operating System
by Marshal Kirk McKusick, Keith Bostic, Michael J. Karels, John S.
Quarterman
http://www.awprofessional.com/title/0201549794

While this book is a bit old, much of it is still applicable, and the
design philosophies still mean something even where the code has changed
in modern BSD systems.

Jeremy C. Reed, please add to this, as I'm sure you have something of
worth to say!
