Not worth over $100. April 28, 2010 Damon Z. Cassell (Salem, MA USA) You might be required to buy this for a college course (in my case, a graduate CS class) but please don't buy it for any other reason. There are far better resources out there for learning the subject matter - even Wikipedia. College textbooks are a rip-off but this is an egregious example. Out of date and badly proofed, it lacks any kind of focus.
Solid book... April 12, 2010 Kevin J. Flynn This is a solid book. The material in it is good and well laid out. The author is somehow able to make hard to present material at least easy to read. However, the major complaint is that this book is on its tenth edition yet is full of errata. I don't have any clue how that can happen. Because it is supposed to be an academic type of text, this knocks its star rating down significantly for me.
too many errata April 12, 2010 M. A. Wardeh to be honest, this book can give you many information; however, it has too many errata. They will reach the tenth edition until they will reach a clean finalized copy.
Clearly set the network concepts March 13, 2010 Roberto G. Villicana Soto (Monterrey, Mexico) This book gave me the opportunity to finally understand some concepts I was a little confused before. It is clear, with very well updated techonologies. If someone have the basic concepts and wants to accommodate and understand other techonologies or systems IP based, this is a very good book. It has some little tips to clarify how all IP/network concepts work together.
The are no many books trying to explain how to design a network, either for enterprise or ISP. It issues some fundamental concepts in that sense, all from a practical point of view. If you want to go more in depth after that, try other books to complement.
Tahani's review March 9, 2010 Tahani Hafez (Houston- clear lake) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this book because of my studying in the University, actually I bought a used one but it comes like a new one and more cheaper than the bookstore.
Thank you amazon
