There are two locations where you can define the button's location: dconf and gconf.
The dconf-method works for most of Gnome Shell and Unity. However, e.g. Chrome is using the "old" gconf-setting.
dconf
Install and run dconf-editor.
Go to org → gnome → desktop → wm → preferences and find the setting button-layout.
The default value is: appmenu:close. To just add the minimise/maximise buttons (e.g. in Gnome Shell),
change it to: appmenu:minimize,maximize,close.
To just move the close button to the left, use: close,appmenu:. (The : separates the buttons on
the left and those on the right.)
You can also mix it up, e.g. close,appmenu:minimize,maximize.
gconf
Install and run gconf-editor.
Go to apps → metacity → general and find button_layout.
Here, the default value is :minimize,maximize,close.
To get everything to the left, use close,minimize,maximize:.
