Thank you all.

For reasons I am unclear, our institute use ksh.

I have checked Mr. Chris Johnson's books on Amazon.com. They have
excellent reviews. Unfortunately, it seems the books focus on bash
shell programming. Not suitable to me.

Here is what I found as comment for Chris Johnson's "Shell Scripting
Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach":
"Because most scripts found in this book are POSIX (Portable
Operating System Interface)-compliant, they are supported by
many of the major shell variants, including Bash, ksh and sh,
among others."
