(More customer reviews)This book is very helpful!
I'm not very fit to criticize/applaud this book because I'm not a network guy but I'm trying to be!
That being said...
At a little more than halfway through I have a far better understanding about networks and network technology than I thought I would by this point. Some topics aren't covered in depth but I wasn't looking for an all-exhaustive reference book, I was looking for a "comprehensive understanding" book: a book that could tell me something about most things having to do with networking.
I'm really busy with homework but highly recommend this book for anyone but especially for two kinds of people:
-people starting from scratch in learning about networks
-people looking to fill in the gaps unfilled by their previous education(s)
I'm sorry if I'm not a very good reviewer but I've tried to elaborate my thoughts... however poorly.
