Format:Hardcover
This book (6th edition), is up-to-date, informative and very easy to understand. The book contains plenty of examples, diagrams to aid the text, along with useful practical applications and the author's opinions on how the industry is moving. Out of all the general business networking books I have read so far, this book is by far the best...
Format:Hardcover
I bought this book for 1p from USA and it arrived within 2 weeks; brilliant information provided within it and provides a lot of details which are not overally technical when being explained therefore any reader can enjoy it.

Format:Hardcover
This book is very detailed and a novice in the telecommunications field will understand it. The diagrams are very clear and easy to understand. Now the bad part. It was published in 1996 which means all the data is from 1995. This book is being used at San Jose State University but only for the next semester (Fall '98), which hopefully means a new version will be coming out. The telecommunications industry is changing every time you see the Cal Trans guys digging up the road installing new cables and wires!!
